Salad
-
Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to slice the Envy™ apples into 1/8 inch-thick rounds. Hold the mandolin firmly with one hand and the apple in the other. Glide the apple back and forth over the blade to get round, thin slices. Watch out for your fingers!

Add your apple slices, 1/3 cup of vinaigrette, salt, sugar, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss to coat the apple slices.
-
To serve, lay one slice of apple on each plate, then top with arugula, celery, grapes, walnuts, and a sprinkle of goat cheese. Continue layering the ingredients on each plate until all ingredients are used.
-
Sprinkle the remaining goat cheese. Continue layering the ingredients on each plate until all ingredients are used.
-
Serve with the remaining vinaigrette on the side so your guests can see it drip down the sides of your stacked apple Waldorf salad.
-
Garnish with celery leaves and serve.
