Directions
Apple, Dried Cherry, and Pecan Salad With Maple Dressing,Adapted from recipe from Mountain Town Station Brewing Company and Steakhouse in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. Original recipe published in Bon Appetit, September 2002. Great salad for the holidays. Very easy but impressive. Dried cranberries can be substituted for the dried cherries. Also good with glazed or spiced pecans. Pears would also be good in place of apples. For a less creamy dressing, reduce or elimate sour cream and increase vinegar and oil.,Another recipe that I cut in half for the 2 of us, & I did serve the dressing on the side, mostly because I most often use considerably less than does my other half, & that suited both of us! Other than that, the recipe was made & given, & we very happy with the flavor combo! I especially liked the cherries, apples & nuts, AND another time I’d like to use glazed nuts, as I think the sweetness would make a nice addition ~ That’s my sweet tooth showing through, again! [Made & rev8ewed in 1-2-3 Hits Tag],This was a beautiful addition to Christmas dinner – my healthful guests really enjoyed it! As for me, any salad with dried cherries and green apples rates high on my charts. I served the dressing on the side since there was a good chance of leftovers.
