This was one of the salads I created for D Home magazine when they asked me to create salad recipes featuring arugula for their Fall 2023 issue. Not long after that, it was also featured as a special for the week at the UT Southwestern Medical Center cafeteria.
I love this salad so much because it is full of flavor and contains so many quintessential fall ingredients!

For the salad:
4 cups tightly packed arugula
1 honey crisp apple, cored and thinly sliced

¼ cup apple cider vinegar
3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Add the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, and honey to a small bowl and whisk until combined.
Place the arugula, apple slices, pomegranate seeds, chopped walnuts, and feta in a bowl and drizzle on the dressing as desired. Mix before serving with a protein of your choice.
