Ingredients

  • 4 medium size apples
  • 1 head Boston or Butter leaf lettuce washed and dried
  • 1/2 cup mayo
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Zest from 1 lemon
  • Juice from 1 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon chunky peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup seedless grapes halved
  • 1 cup celery or fennel sliced very thin
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped fine
  • 3/4 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1/2 cup peanuts toasted and chopped (walnuts, pecans or cashews can also be used)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, peanut butter, parsley, honey, lemon juice, ginger and lemon zest and season generously with pepper.
  • Halve, core, and cut the apples into 1/2-inch pieces, leaving the skin intact.
  • Place the apples, celery and grapes into a bowl.
  • Drizzle just enough dressing to coat the fruit and toss. Cover and refrigerate if not serving immediately.
  • When you are ready to serve, toss peanuts into the salad saving some to sprinkle on top, and mix. Arrange the lettuce leaves on plates and then place the salad on the lettuce and serve the extra dressing on the side.

Notes

You can make a low fat version of this recipe by using fat free Greek yogurt and leaving out the lemon juice.
