Avocado Apple & Arugula Salad

makes 2 generous servings

  • 1 apple, chopped (I used a Cameo apple)
  • 1 avocado, chopped
  • 6 cups arugula
  • 3 tablespoons sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 red onion, minced
  • 1 tablespoon honey mustard
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey (more or less depending on your taste)
  • salt & pepper

In a small bowl, whisk together honey mustard, lemon juice, olive oil. Chop apples and squeeze a small amount of lemon juice on top and toss to prevent discoloration. In a large bowl, add the arugula, avocado, apples, sunflower seeds, red onions and pour dressing on top. Season with salt & pepper and serve with a side of crusty bread.
