This salad is my absolute favorite! I adapted it from the Apple Salad recipe by Makinze Gore, which was approved by the Delish Test Kitchen. The first time I prepared it was for my boss, who is one of my favorite people and with whom I worked for 20 years. He is an incredible restaurateur with several outstanding and successful restaurants. I invited him over for dinner to celebrate his birthday, and then I started to panic! How could I create something as delicious as what he makes that he would truly enjoy?I settled on a menu featuring butternut squash soup, braised short ribs with Barolo served over hand-whipped mashed potatoes, and a vegetable (it was October). He loved everything, and I was thrilled! However, it was the salad that really stood out to him; he adored it. A few months later, while he was in Pennsylvania for an event he was catering, he asked me for the recipe! I was more than happy to share it, and it turned out to be a hit. For that meal, I used the original recipe, click the link below! Thank you, Makinze Gore and The Delish Test Kitchen for this wonderful recipe and the inspiration to get creative and add some brain boosting foods Keep On Cooking!
