Apple Salad with Manchego Cheese & Chives
Apple Salad with Manchego Cheese & Chives is a darling fall recipe. Sweet-tart apples, buttery cheese, and mild chives in a grassy-lemony dressing. It’s somehow both simple and complex, and at the same time effortless and impressive.
Equipment
- Mandoline (optional)
Ingredients
- 4 firm sweet-tart apples
- 2 tbsp lemon juice divided
- 4 ounces manchego cheese
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup chives chopped
Instructions
- Using a mandoline or knife, cut apples into matchsticks. Toss with 1 tablespoon lemon to prevent browning.
- Using a mandoline or knife, cut manchego into matschsticks. Toss with apples.
- Whisk together remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice and olive oil. Toss with salad. Garnish with chives. Serve immediately (though the apples lose some crispness, I find leftover are still delicious for a couple days).
