mixed greens with apples & cider vinaigrette

This is a nice, light and refreshing salad - good for spring, summer and fall (especially with honeycrisp or haralson apples.) The dressing is the perfect complement to the mixed greens and tart apple.

1/4 c. apple cider vinegar
3 T. minced shallots
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 tsp. honey
1/2 c. olive oil
1 red or green tart apple sliced thin
mixed greens (I like to get a mix with arugula to add a bitter note as well.)

Combine vinegar, shallots, mustard, honey. Add oil and whisk or use immersion blender until well blended. Season to taste and combine with greens. Toss to coat.
