apple cashew goodness

Apple Cashew Salad


Shoutout to Misty Kauffman, my kind friend from Eyre Street for this recipe. You made a lot of ladies happy last night at my church's annual soup & salad night :)


tsp = teaspoon

tbsp = tablespoon


Dressing part:

1/2 cup sugar

1 tsp dry mustard

1 tsp salt

1 tbsp grated onion

1/3 cup cider vinegar

3/4 cup vegetable oil

1 and 1/2 tbsp poppyseeds


Salad part:

2 red apples, chopped up and soaked in lemon juice

head of romaine lettuce

bag of baby spinach

9 oz can cashews

grated swiss cheese (asiago, parmesan works too)


Combine all ingredients except oil. Then whisk in oil.


For salad, mix lettuce and spinach together. Top with apples, cashews, and cheese, then mix together with dressing.


Chicken is an excellent addition to the salad for a light lunch or dinner.


Thanks Misty for sharing this!
