Bacon Apple Cranberry Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette

How is it almost August already? My summer salad has been on repeat the whole month of July. I can't get enough of the flavor combination that hits every tastebud! Tart honeycrisp apple, savory bacon & rotisserie chicken, sweet dried cranberries, tangy blue cheese... all topped a light citrus-apple vinaigrette. I use local spring mix or spinach/romaine blend, but any greens will work!


Salad:

  • 2 cups mixed greens

  • 1/4 of a honeycrisp apple, thinly sliced

  • 2 Tbsp dried cranberries

  • 1 Tbsp bacon crumbles

  • 1/4 cup shredded rotisserie chicken

  • 1-2 Tbsp crumbled blue cheese

  • 1 hard-boiled egg (optional)


Topping options:

  • croutons

  • pepitas

  • slivered almonds or other nuts


Dressing:

  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup or honey

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • 1/3 cup olive oil


This is such an excellent go-to for summer and healthy, too! Please tag us @sarahjayneblog and #sarahjayneblog if you make one and post on social! Happy salad making!
