Ingredients
4 servings
- 5 ounces arugula or baby arugula
- 1 crisp apple, (such as Fuji or Honeycrisp)
- 3½ ounces Manchego, (thinly sliced)
- ½ cup sliced almonds, (lightly toasted if desired)
- 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 6 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots, (from 1 shallot)
- Heaping ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Steps
-
Make the vinaigrette by whisking all of the ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside.
-
Place the arugula in a serving bowl. Whisk the vinaigrette again until well combined, then add to the salad, little by little, until the greens are well dressed; you may have a little left over. Right before serving, cut the apple into thin slices and toss into the salad along with the Manchego and almonds. Taste and adjust seasoning, then serve immediately.
