Kale Apple Walnut Salad with Creamy Walnut Dressing: A Perfect Kale Salad for The Cooler Months
This Kale Apple Walnut Salad is one of many great easy salad recipes. I pull it out as one of my fall salads or a healthy dose of green in the winter months. This hearty kale salad also makes a great addition to any Thanksgiving menu.
I love Massaged Kale Salads. They are easy, healthy, and a great way to eat more veggies.
Kale Apple Walnut Salads are not new to the internet. However, I love them because you can take that base salad concept and make it your own with additional ingredient add-ins and different salad dressings.
The Ingredients in This Kale Salad Recipe
Massaged Kale: Massaging the kale leaves allows for a more palatable salad. Each bite is more manageable and chewable. Check out my article all about How to Create the Perfect Kale Salad. Lacinato kale works well in this salad but you could also use a curly kale or baby kale.
Walnuts: I use freshly toasted crunchy walnuts in the salad dressing and as a salad topper. Walnuts, like many other nuts, are heart-healthy! I love the nutty and earthy flavor.
Fresh Apples: In this recipe, I use two different types of “all-purpose” apples. I use sweet Honeycrisp apples, Granny Smith, or Pink Lady. These tangy apples are crisp with sweet-tart harmonies and hints of berry flavors.
If you want to substitute the apple, I recommend pears. I recommend a crispier pear variety like a Bosc pear. You could also sub in celery for a crunchy addition or even fennel with a licorice-like flavor.
I prefer to cut the apples into thin matchsticks but diced apples work well too.
Crispy Quinoa: This is a fun way to incorporate whole grains into your salad. You could use cooked quinoa that is not crispy to make this more of a grain bowl, but I love the crispy quinoa over-top the salad for a crispy, crunchy, and nutty finish. The little black specs in my photos are crispy quinoa.
The Creamy Walnut Dressing
I keep this dressing creamy yet mayo-free by using toasted walnuts. Blending nuts into a salad dressing is a delightful way to create a creamy dressing that is 100% plant-based.
Don’t have Walnuts or a blender to turn freshly roasted Walnuts into a creamy dressing? No problem, you can use tahini or creamy almond butter instead.
Don’t have walnut oil? Olive oil will also work in this recipe.
In a blender or food processor, combine the walnut oil, toasted walnuts, apple juice, apple cider vinegar, water, maple syrup, garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
Blend until smooth. If the dressing is too thick, add more water, a tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Prepare the Kale:
In a large salad bowl, add the chopped kale. ( I like to chop the kale into thin strips)
Add 1/4 cup of the salad dressing over the kale. Massage the dressing into the kale with your hands for a few minutes until it becomes tender.
Prepare the Salad:
Add the sliced crunchy apples and toasted walnuts to the large bowl.
Assemble the Salad:
Pour more dressing (to your liking) over the salad and toss to combine.
Sprinkle the crispy quinoa on top just before serving for added crunch.
Serve immediately or let it sit for a bit to allow the flavors to meld together.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Substitutions & Additions
Substitutions
Walnuts: Option to substitute the crunchy walnuts for other crunchy nuts or seeds such as pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, or almonds.
Apples: Option to substitute the apples with another fruit such as pomegranate seeds, dried cherries, or dried cranberries.
Additions
Do you want to bulk up this Kale Apple Walnut Salad? You can add roasted butternut squash, roasted chicken, or leftover Thanksgiving turkey.
Feeling like you want some cheese? You can add some vegan feta or, if not trying to keep this a plant-based salad, feel free to incorporate some cheese! Feta cheese, blue cheese, or goat cheese would taste great in this recipe.
I love to encourage creativity in the kitchen. Let this recipe bring on the inspiration!
Tips and Tricks
Washing Kale
Tip: Use a Salad Spinner
One of my favorite ways to wash lettuce and greens for salads is with a large bowl of cold water and a salad spinner.
Washing lettuce and kale for salads is so much easier with a salad spinner. I like to submerge the kale leaves in a large bowl of clean cold water and swish them around. This will loosen any dirt or debris and it will sink to the bottom of the bowl.
Then, rinse the kale with cool running water and add it to your salad spinner to remove excess water from formthe leaves.
Dealing with Leftovers
Dressing Tip:
This dressing is simple, and a great recipe to make in bulk and in advance. You can freeze or save it for another recipe for later in the week, like Apple Walnut Marinated Tofu, tempeh, chicken, or salmon.
Salad Tip: If eating this salad for leftovers the next day (so good), don’t add all the crispy quinoa at once to the salad. Despite the name, crispy quinoa that is added to the salad and stored in the fridge will not retain its crispiness overnight. For best results, top each salad before serving.

Notes
If you halve this recipe, make the full amount of dressing and save it for future salads or marinades. I've used this slathered over salmon and as a chicken marinade and it is perfection. Apples: I like to cut the apple into thick matchstick like slices but but diced works too. I used one honey crispy apple and one Green Newtown Pippin apple.
This wing recipe is perfect for game day, family gathering, or your next weeknight dinner the whole family will love.
Before I discovered the magic of air fryer chicken wings, I thought I could only get good wings at a restaurant, deep fried, slathered in sauce! During football season, these AIR FRYER wings are an easier and less expensive alternative to ordering out!
As a Maryland girl, Old Bay seasoning has a special place in my heart, reminiscent of crab feasts, the salty Atlantic beach air, and warm summers. This easy chicken wing recipe is perfectly paired with a honey Old Bay sauce, bringing a taste of Maryland to your table.

Originally, I made this recipe with a honey Old Bay sauce made with honey, old bay, dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and hot sauce.
I would first cook the wings, then coat them in the sauce. However, I’ve since changed my favorite Honey Old Bay Wings recipe because I prefer this as a dry rub recipe!
For the new method, you rub your seasonings on the wings before cooking. Then, once they are cooked, you finish the wings off with a drizzle of your favorite honey.
Chicken Wings
Avocado Oil
Old Bay
Salt and Black Pepper
Honey
Step By Step How To Make Honey Old Bay Wings Recipe
Prep the Wings:
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a large bowl, add avocado oil, old bay, salt, and pepper and rub it into the chicken until evenly coated.
Cook the Wings in the Air Fryer:
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for about 5 minutes.
Place wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the wings at 400°F for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are crispy, golden brown, and cooked through.
Drizzle Honey Over Wings:
Once the wings are done, transfer them your serving platter and drizzle the honey over the wings.
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve these party wings with carrot or celery sticks, ranch, or blue cheese, and enjoy!

My Favorite Sauces to Make From Scratch for Air-Fryer Wings
As convenient as store-bought sauces can be, it’s surprisingly easy (and fun) to make your sauces from scratch! Additionally, you can go beyond the classic buffalo and BBQ sauces.
Try out some of my favorite sauces with incredible flavors.
You preheat an oven, same goes for the air fryer. 400°F for about 5 minutes should do the trick!
Tip #2: Arrange Wings in a SINGLE Layer.
For extra crispy air fryer wings, the wings need space to ensure even cooking. Overcrowing the basket can lead to unevenly cooked wings.
This means, if you are making a large amount of wings, you will need to cooking them in batches.
Tip #3: For extra crispy wings, serve sauce on the side.
This might be my personal preference, but eversince I started ordering my wings with sauce on the side, I’ve never gone back!
They stay super crispy and I can add as much sauce as I would like for dunking or drizzling!
Tip #4: For easy speedy cleanup use a liner.
For easy speedy clean up use an airfryer liner or tin foil. Be sure to clean the basket after each use, the liner might not get everything, but it will make cleanup easier.
You can purchase these on Amazon, Walmart, or Target.

Bagels can be a satisfying and delicious addition to your healthy lunches and breakfasts.
I try to keep my bagel breakfast balanced with the addition of fruit, veggies, and protein.
Light cream cheese is great, but one of my favorite combinations is a bagel topped with my homemade Healthy Honey Almond Cream Cheese, which includes cottage cheese as a secret ingredient. It is terrific on English muffins, spooned over Croffles (one of my favorite Korean Recipes), or spread over top of a plain bagel from your local bagel shop.
My favorite is this spread on a blueberry bagel, especially Dave’s Killer Bread cinnamon raisin Bagels.
Ingredients and Tips
Cottage Cheese – I prefer a full-fat cottage cheese for the most flavor.
Honey – In a pinch, you can swap for maple syrup.
Almonds – I prefer to use toasted almonds. It will give the spread more flavor. If you have food allergies to almonds, you can use sunflower seeds.
Vanilla Extract – You could swap for almond extract
Salt – I use flakey sea salt or kosher salt
Step-By-Step Instructions
In a food processor, blend the cottage cheese until smooth.
Add the chopped almonds, honey, vanilla, and salt to the food processor. Blend well.
Taste the mixture and adjust the honey to your liking.

Creating a Balanced Breakfast
You may have heard breakfast is “the most important meal of the day” for many, and this is true. Numerous studies have found eating a balanced breakfast regularly is associated with a range of health benefits including reducing the risk of obesity, type II diabetes, and better school performance in children and adolescents.
A balanced breakfast includes a variety of nutrients in appropriate proportions to provide energy while promoting satiety.
I like to start my day with a balanced breakfast because it kickstarts my healthy eating for the rest of the day. You might be thinking, but Sarah, bagels are NOT healthy. Au contraire, my friend.
Bagels have carbohydrates, fiber, and protein. But most of all, I love the taste! I especially love bagels because I engage in regular exercise. Bagels are a convenient and tasty way to fuel my workouts.
Tips On Creating a Balanced Breakfast
Here are some tips for creating a balanced breakfast.
The Cinnamon Raisin Remix and Boomin’ Berry Bagels pair oh so well with this recipe. It’s important not to get too hung up on the numbers but here are a couple of reasons why I love to include Dave’s Killer Bread Organic Bagels in my diet.
With 11 to 12g of protein and 12 to 14g of whole grains, these bagels are baked to keep you fuller longer. Pair The Cinnamon Raisin Remix Bagel with a heaping 1/4 cup of my Honey Almond Cream Cheese and you are eating 18g of protein.
Pair that combo with a piece of fruit and you’ve got yourself a balanced breakfast or healthy lunch any dietitian would be proud of! Fruit adds additional fiber, vitamins, and minerals making it a smart addition to a balanced breakfast.

Ingredients for Habanero Peach Salsa Recipe
Below are the ingredients for this fruity salsa!
Peach: For the ultimate peachy flavor, I believe nothing beats locally sourced, fresh peaches, if available in your area. You could also use canned peaches in this recipe!
Peaches canned locally or store-bought are bothfine, but I like using fresh!
Keep the skin on, the colors are so beautiful!
Tomato – I used tomatoes I grew in my backyard. If you see yellow tomatoes at the farmers market those would look beautiful in this dish.
Minced Habanero – For a spicier salsa, use more, for a milder salsa use less.
I recommend starting with a small amount of minced habaneros and adding more from there based on your flavor preferences for the right amount of heat.
A little goes a long way with habaneros bold spicy flavor.
Fresh Cilantro – If you dislike cilantro, I recommend fresh Italian parsley.
Fresh Lime Juice – In a pinch, lemon juice or white vinegar could also work.
Onion – I love to use white onion in this dish but red, sweet, or yellow onions work well too
Optional Ingredients for Habanero Peach Salsa Recipe
Lime Zest – You already got those limes, this adds more lime flavor!

How to Make Habanero Peach Salsa Recipe (3 ways!)
There are several ways in which you can make peach salsa. Here are a few ways you can go about this salsa creation.
Choose to do it the way I did and, roughly dice and/or mince the ingredients and add them to a food processor. I pulsed about 10 times and was careful not to over-pulse.
Another method is dicing or mincing all by hand. Choose your desired size and keep each ingredient small and uniform. I prefer this method for chunky salsa.
The third option is to use a salsa-making gadget! I’ve seen these sold online at various stores. Some are crank food processors while others are hand chopping gizmos.

Tips for Cooking with Hot peppers for Your Habanero Peach Salsa Recipes
Below are a few tips for cooking with hot peppers.
Handle with Care: I highly recommend using disposable gloves when handling habanero peppers. The oils on peppers can irritate your skin and eyes. So also, avoid touching your eyes.
Controlling and Adjusting Heat: For adjusting the heat in salsa, remove the seeds and membranes to reduce the heat. Additionally, start small and taste as you go.
Balance: Hot peppers can overwhelm other flavors in a dish. Balance the heat by adding acidic and sweet flavors.
Pulse 5 times, then using a rubber spatula scrape down the sides, and pulse again 5 times.
Serve with chips, tacos, fajitas, over a salad, the possibilities are endless!

FAQ (ask a dietitian!)
Is hoisin sauce the same as sweet soy sauce?
Hoisin sauce and sweet soy sauce are not the same. Hoisin, commonly used in Cantonese cuisine, is a combination of soybeans, garlic, chili peppers, sugar, and various spices including Chinese five-spice powder.
Sweet Soy Sauce, also known as Kecap Manis, is popular in Indonesian cuisine. Kecap Manis is made from soy sauce and sugar.
What makes glaze thick?
There are several ways in which you can make glaze thick. Below are my 3 favorite ways to thicken a glaze.
Reduction: Reduction is a culinary technique used to thicken and intensify the flavors of a liquid by simmering or boiling it, causing some of the water content to evaporate. This technique thickens and intensifies the flavors of a mixture such as soup, sauce, or glaze.
Cornstarch or flour: Adding cornstarch or flour to a glaze thickens it. The starches absorb liquid and created a thicker consistency when heat is involved.
Sugar: Sugar can thicken a glaze, like this Garlicy Sweet Soy Glaze. The sugar becomes more viscous and sticks as it cooks. You can use brown sugar, maple syrup, or honey.
Does sweet soy sauce have gluten?
Usually, Sweet Soy Sauce has gluten. Sweet soy sauce is made with soy sauce and regular soy sauce’s primary ingredient is wheat. However, you can make sweet soy sauce or this Garlicy Sweet Soy Glaze with Tamari or Gluten-free soy sauce.
Is there a sweet soy sauce substitute?
Other than making it yourself with either Marvella’s recipe or my Garlicy Sweet Soy Glaze recipe, there are several possible substitutes you may use depending on the recipe or dish.
Hoisin Sauce – A thick fragrant sauce often used in Cantonese cuisine.
Oyster Sauce – A viscous dark condiment made from oyster extracts. Oyster sauce is commonly used in Chinese, Thai, Malay, and Vietnamese culinary traditions.
Tianmian Sauce – A sweet sauce made from wheat, beans, and sugar often used in Northern and Northeastern Chinese cooking.
