Happy Saturday! I can’t believe we are only 8 days away from Christmas?! I have been busy recipe testing some delicious Christmas recipes! This week on my blog I’m sharing a Winter Apple Salad with a Honey Mustard Vinaigrette. This salad is nothing short of flavor!! You have the sweetness from the apples, creaminess from the Gorgonzola cheese, crunchy texture from the pecans and a subtle and sweet flavor from the shallots. All dressed in a creamy and tangy honey mustard vinaigrette. This is the perfect salad to serve with Christmas dinner or any upcoming holiday gathering.
