Apple And Cucumber Salad In A Honey Mustard Vinaigrette

Apple And Cucumber Salad With A Delicious Mustard Based Vinaigrette. 

Apple And Cucumber Salad

This apple and cucumber salad done up with a delicious mustard and honey vinaigrette is all you need if you are counting your calories or if you are on a low carb diet. I happened to grab a few granny smith apples a while back. I prefer them in my ABC juice because they lend a nice tart taste to the juice. But the moment i bought them, my daughter caught on a cold.

Apple And Cucumber Salad

As a result, i couldn’t do my regular juicing. I did manage to consume one of those apples in the form of this lip smacking chutney. But i was still left with 2 more of them. They were too tart to be eaten on their own and that s when this apple and cucumber salad came to my rescue.

Apple And Cucumber Salad

I also had a bag of mixed salad greens, some cherry tomatoes and some butter lettuce that i threw in to this salad to make it crunchy. The vinaigrette happened on a whim as always. I just mixed up some good old dijon mustard, honey, white pepper, salt and white wine vinegar to balance out the flavors and i must admit, it came as one hell of a dressing. Shall we now check out the recipe for this crunchy apple and cucumber salad?
