Apple Walnut Salad with Maple Dressing
Maple Dressing:

• 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
• 3 Tbsp white wine vinegar
• 2 tsp brown sugar
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil

Whisk mayonnaise, maple syrup, vinegar and sugar in a medium bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in oil until mixture thickens. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Salad:

• 8 oz. bag of mixed baby greens
• 2 granny smith apples, peeled and cut into matchstick strips
• 1/2 cup dried tart cherries (dried cranberries work well, too)
• 3/4 cup toasted walnuts, chopped
• 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Toss greens, apples, cherries and walnuts in a large bowl with a few tablespoons od dressing (just enough to lightly coat). Pour remaining dressing over salad and sprinkle with crumbled feta before serving.
