Green Salad with Apples and Mozzarella

Green Salad with Apples and Mozzarella

Apples and cheese are one of my favorite food combinations, in a salad or just for a snack. Serve this salad topped with a roasted chicken breast for a simple lunch, or with some roasted vegetables and chicken for dinner. Honeycrisp apples are by far my favorite variety of apple, but feel free to use your favorite or whatever you have on hand.

Ingredients

Salad

6 cups mixed lettuce torn into bite size pieces
½ cups mozzarella balls
½ honeycrisp apples julienned
¼ small red onions julienned
¼ cups pumpkin seeds toasted

Dressing

1 tablespoons raw apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoons raw honey
¼ teaspoons sea salt
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Sounds delicious. Any suggestion for making the “balls” of mozzarella?
