    How to Make this Apple and Orange Salad:

    This apple and orange salad is super easy to make. To make this salad, simply:

    1. Prepare the salad dressing: To make the salad dressing recipe, just whisk all of the ingredients together in a bowl (or shake them up in a mason jar) until combined.
    2. Fruit Cutting: Next you need to peel an orange and cut it in small pieces. Then Core the apples and cut them in small pieces as well, equal to the orange pieces.
    3. Toss all of your salad ingredients together: Add the oranges and apples to the bowl with raisins and add about 2/3 of a cup of roughly chopped walnuts to the salad. Drizzle evenly with the dressing, then toss lightly until combined and voila!!
    4. And…serve!  Sprinkle fresh mint leaves and enjoy!  🙂
