- 3 cups apples, chopped, about 3-4 medium apples (I used Honey Crisp apples)
- 1 cup celery, chopped
- 1/2 cup pecans, chopped (walnuts or almonds can be substituted)
- 1/4 cup dried cherries or raisins
- 1/4 cup vanilla Greek yogurt (I prefer my salad dressed lightly, but you can add more if you prefer it with more)
- zest of a medium lemon
- 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp honey
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
In a large bowl toss apples, celery, pecans, and cherries together. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix yogurt with lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Pour dressing over the fruit mixture, and stir until coated.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Enjoy!
