🍎 Apple Pear Harvest Salad 🍐 Try this refreshing seasonal salad curated by Educational Chef Kira (@thetruthbites_ ) featuring crisp apples, juicy pears, and massaged greens dressed in a bright agave lemon sesame vinaigrette.
Ingredients ✨ • Green cabbage, thinly sliced • Fresh kale (@ecosunfarms ) • Spinach (@ecosunfarms ) • Apples, diced or thinly sliced (@georgiaproudprovisions ) • Fresh pear, diced or thinly sliced (@georgiaproudprovisions ) • Fresh basil, thinly sliced (@ecosunfarms ) Instructions ✨ 1. Start by preparing all your greens - thinly slice the green cabbage, tear or chop the kale, and wash the spinach. Combine them in a large salad bowl. 2. Dice or thinly slice the apples and fresh pear. Set aside. 3. Thinly slice the fresh basil and scatter it over the greens for aromatic freshness. 4. In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing: start with 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 2 tablespoons coconut aminos, 1½ tablespoons agave, and 1–2 tablespoons water. 5. Add sesame oil as needed (Chef Kira tip: massage the greens with sesame oil first, so you may not need much additional oil in the dressing!). Add a small pinch of salt if needed. Whisk everything together and taste before pouring over your salad - you want bright, slightly sweet, savory, and just enough sesame coming through. 6. Add about half of your dressing first, toss gently, and taste. Add more if needed, adjusting to your preference. 7. Serve immediately while the greens are crisp and fresh!See it on Instagram ↗
