How to Make Blue Apple Salad

  1. Cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy. Remove from pan, crumble, and set aside.
  2. Julienne 2 large blue apples (about 2 cups) and immediately toss with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the julienned apples, ½ cup crumbled bacon, ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese, ¼ cup chopped pecans, and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley.
  4. Drizzle with your choice of dressing (raspberry vinaigrette recommended – see recipe below) and gently toss to combine.
  5. Chill for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld. Garnish with extra pecans and parsley before serving.
