Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Chop the celery stalk into small bite-sized pieces.
- Core and thinly slice the apple. For extra crispness, you can toss the apple slices in a bit of lemon juice to prevent browning.
- In a large salad bowl, add 2 cups of mixed greens (or salad mix).
- Add the chopped celery and sliced apple to the mixed greens.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped walnuts evenly over the salad.
- Add the finely chopped chives for a fresh burst of flavor.
- Drizzle the prepared dressing over the assembled salad.
- Gently toss everything together to ensure the dressing coats all the ingredients evenly.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, crisp textures and flavors of your Celery and Blue Cheese Salad.
Tips:
- For an even more flavorful salad, toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are fragrant and lightly browned.
- Use a mandoline to thinly slice the celery and apple for a more delicate texture in your salad.
- For a vegan option, substitute the blue cheese with a plant-based cheese alternative.
- Make the vinaigrette first and let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before tossing it with the salad.
- Add the chives just before serving to retain their fresh, vibrant flavor.
This celery and blue cheese salad is a delightful combination of textures and flavors, making it a perfect addition to any meal.
