Honeycrisp Apple and Feta Salad

Healthy Fact of the Day

Honeycrisp apples provide fiber and antioxidants, while walnuts offer heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. This salad delivers a perfect balance of nutrients, healthy fats, and natural sweetness.

This Honeycrisp Apple and Feta Salad celebrates the best of fall flavors with crisp, juicy apples, creamy tangy feta, and crunchy walnuts all brought together with a simple honey-sweetened vinaigrette. The combination of textures and flavors—sweet, salty, creamy, and crunchy—creates a salad that’s both satisfying and refreshing. Perfect as a light lunch or elegant side dish.

If you enjoy this fresh, seasonal salad, you’ll love our Blueberry Peach Feta Salad with its similar sweet-savory combination and vibrant fruit flavors.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
