Dress it up with no dressing…

Dress it up with no dressing… The No Dressing H’Appy Holidays Salad A twist on the classic Apple Cranberry salad… a favorite of ours during the Holidays! This salad has no oil based dressing in it… and trust me, you will not miss it. The trick: Thinly slice a couple of apples and soak them in cold water with a sprinkle of salt for at least 15 minutes. Do the exact same thing with one red onion - thinly slice, soak in cold water with some salt for 15 minutes. In the meantime, mix up arugula leaves and kale leaves together- enough to serve 4. Toss in 1/4 cup of dried cranberries and 1/4 cup of pecans. Add a handful of glazed pecans to the mix. Drain out the apples and onions. Add them to the salad mix. Mix with salad hands or tongs for a good minute. Let the salad sit for a few minutes before serving. The salted juices of apples and onions mixed with the sweet juices from cranberries and pecans together form a dressing of its own and add a nice sweet and nutty flavor to this salad! A Holiday favorite; a relatively healthy addition to the table; a feast of colors and flavors… this plated expression can always please one and all. Give it a try. Make it. Share it.
