How to Make Autumn Harvest Honeycrisp Apple and Feta Salad
Begin by washing the Honeycrisp apples and cutting them into bite-sized pieces. Crumble the feta cheese and chop the toasted pecans for that perfect crunch.
In a small bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar and olive oil with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until the dressing is emulsified and ready to uplift your salad.
In a large bowl, toss the chopped apples, crumbled feta, and chopped pecans. Drizzle the homemade vinaigrette over the top and gently mix everything together, ensuring each piece is coated.
Give a taste to adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or pepper as needed. Plate the salad immediately for maximum freshness and vibrancy on your table!
For the best taste and texture, enjoy this salad fresh. Reassemble components if serving later.
