Brie and Walnut Salad

Recipe from Savory Bites.

Ingredients
Spring mix leaves
1 Granny Smith Apple
Handful of walnuts
Chunk of Brie (use with caution)
Dried apricots, pineapple (cranberries also would work!)
Grilled chicken or roast pork

Dressing Ingredients
Juice of half an orange
4 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tsp honey

Directions
Cut the apple in half and get rid of the seeds. Then slice the apple again, into quarters. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the apple so that you get thin slices (quarter-inch thick). After, take the chunk of brie and cut it into small cubes. Slice up any other dried fruit that’s also too big.

In a large bowl, throw everything but the protein together and toss until combined. In a small cup, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and olive oil. It’s going to take some time because they naturally tend to separate. When thoroughly mixed, add in the orange juice and the honey.

Combine the dressing with the salad, add the protein, and you’re done!
