How to Make Apple And Cabbage Salad

  1. In a large bowl, combine the 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, 2 cups shredded green cabbage, and 2 medium thinly sliced apples.
  2. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt (or to taste).
  3. Gently stir in 1/4 cup Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise) until the salad is evenly coated.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
