New Waldorf Salad with Lemon-Tarragon Vinaigrette
Author: Heather
Recipe type: Salad, Vegetables
- 2 Tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons honey or agave (less is okay if you want to cut down on sugar)
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- ⅔ Cup olive oil
- ¼ Cup fresh tarragon leaves
- 7 oz bag of baby argula, washed and dried (Trader Joe’s has this for about $1.99!)
- 3 small granny smith apples, cored and cut into thin matchsticks
- 2 ribs of celery, cut into thin matchsticks
- ½ cup thinly shaved parmesan or romano cheese
- ¼ cup candied nuts (pecans, sliced or slivered almonds or hazelnuts) or plain almonds, chopped
- Combine first 7 ingredients in a food processor. While motor is running, add oil in a steady but slow stream until it emulsifies.
- Turn off motor running, add tarragon and pulse a few times until tarragon leaves are chopped and blended into dressing.
- Refrigerate in a covered container for up to a week.
- Prepare and slice the apples and immediately toss with enough dressing to coat the apples (to keep apples from oxidizing and turning brown).
- Prepare and add the sliced celery to the apples.
- Just before serving, add remaining ingredients with rest of dressing. Toss well and serve.
