The best part about this recipe is the delicious and easy dressing. I always find my dressing to be missing something, but this one went so well with the apples, cheese and nuts. My husband and I really liked it. I'll be using it again soon!

So fantastic! Made this with mixed greens and wedged the apple instead of matchsticks. Was a perfect complement to the Grilled Halibut with Lemon Basil Vinaigrette!!
