Makes 4-6 Servings

Ingredients

• 1 Cup walnut pieces
• ¼ cup honey
• ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
• ¼ tsp salt
• ½ cup crumbled Isle St Jean “Bleu D’Acadie” blue cheese
• 2 large MacIntosh Apple, sliced thinly
• 6 cups baby spinach or other greens
• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 Tbsp white balsamic vinegar
• 1 Tbsp honey
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

• Preheat your oven to 350F. Warm the honey in a microwave-safe bowl, then stir in the cayenne, salt and walnuts. Spread the mixture into an even layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, then bake for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let the nut mixture cool completely on the baking sheet, then crumble into large chunks.
• Whisk together the oil, vinegar, and honey, then season generously with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Arrange the greens in a bowl or serving platter, then top with apples, blue cheese and candied nuts. Give the dressing another stir, then pour it over the salad. Serve right away!
