This salad is perfect for a weeknight meal or your Thanksgiving table. Filled with colorful, slightly bitter, crunchy greens, sweet apples & pears, plus creamy aged white cheddar & a bright fall dressing, it's just delicious.

the prettiest fall salad...

This is my favorite fall salad. Crunchy, tart, bitter, sweet, salty, and so, so pretty. Plus, perfect for your Thanksgiving table. The dressing is a Maple-Mustard vinaigrette and it’s delicious. This salad feeds about 4 people as a side dish, so multiply as needed for your holiday table. This beautiful platter comes from Hudson Grace and it’s one of my favorites.
