We've been making quite a few salads these last few weeks...perhaps to savor the last few weeks of warm weather! Also...all of those warm comfort foods are starting to creep onto the Pinterest boards {hello Pumpkin Spiced Lattes!}, so I need to resist the urge as long as possible! One nice thing about this time of year is that apples are at their peak, so it's a great excuse to make this salad!
I love the flavors and texture in this salad. The apples and dressing are sweet and yet the peppers and gorgonzola add a tang. Here are the ingredients:
Apples
Avocado
Tomatoes
Green Bell Peppers
Cucumber
Mixed Greens
Gorgonzola Cheese
Almond Slivers
Poppyseed Dressing
You can also add red onion, but I've pretty much sworn them off since the pregnancy! ;)
Fall technically doesn't begin until the 22nd, so I'll be hanging on as long as I can to these last days of summer! How about you?

ReplyDeleteLooks scrumptious. Loved seeing Ethan's ten week wrap up. He is getting so big. I want to catch up and hear all about your trip {did you find cute dresses for the whole nursing thing? that was always a challenge}.
ReplyDeleteEspecially scrumptious in the warm weather. Salads are always such a good dinner or lunch option!
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! Definitely need to try it soon :) And I am trying my best to fight the urge to start baking again because I know once it starts snowing here that's all I'm going to want to do! xoxo
