Who said you need lettuce to make a salad? This apple salad with celery and fennel is crisp, fresh, creamy, and delicious. Serve this on the side or as a bed for grilled or roasted meats. I also love topping it with roasted root vegetables or squash to keep it vegetarian. We love using a crisp apple like Granny Smith, Fiji, or Honeycrisp.
Ingredient:
- 2 medium apples, cored and thinly sliced
- 3 celery stalks, peeled and sliced
- 1 fennel bulb, cored and thinly sliced
- 1 scallion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup pecans, hazelnuts, or walnuts, lightly toasted
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons crème fraîche
- Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
