How To Make green salad with apples and orange vinaigrette

  • Step 1
    Prepare the Orange-Mustard Dressing: Grate rind from orange directly into salad bowl. Add olive oil, vinegar, mustard, salt & pepper; whisk together until creamy.
  • Step 2
    Cut white pith from the orange. Separate the orange segments and place into salad bowl.
  • Step 3
    Core both apples; leave skin on. Cut into 1/2" dice. Add to dressing; toss to coat. Salad can be prepared up to 1 hr. ahead at this point.
  • Step 4
    To serve, place greens in salad bowl. Toss all ingredients together. Apple will fall to bottom, so place greens on plates first; then apples on top.
