How to Make Spinach Apple Salad With Roquefort Cheese

  1. Wash and tear 5 oz fresh spinach into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large bowl and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, gently toss 1 medium apple (cored and thinly sliced) with 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar. Set aside.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1/2 cup diced papaya, 1/4 cup crumbled Roquefort cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts, and 1 tablespoon honey. Whisk well. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the honey is dissolved and the sauce slightly thickens (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and immediately pour over the spinach, tossing gently to coat.
  4. Top the spinach mixture with the apple mixture and remaining 1/4 cup crumbled Roquefort cheese. Toss gently to combine.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy!
