Arugula Salad with Apples
6 servings

1 Granny Smith Apple
1/2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
3 bunches arugula
4 1/2 oz. fresh goat cheese
3 tbsp. heavy cream
3/8 cup walnut oil
3 tbsp. white wine vinegar
as needed, coarse salt
as needed, pepper
24 toasted walnut halves


Peel and core apples and cut into fine julienne Toss with lemon juice to keep it from discoloring. Cover until ready to use. Wash and dry arugula; set aside.

Combine goat cheese and cream in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook stir constantly, until smooth and well combined; remove from heat.

Toss arugula with oil, vinegar, salt and pepper to taste.

Arrange equal portions of the dressed arugula on each of 6 chilled salad plates. Randomly place 4 walnut halves and equal portions of the reserved apple over the arugula. Drizzle the warm goat cheese mixture over the salad in a crisscross pattern. Serve immediately.
