Method
Salad
- 1
Prepare celery
Wash celery stalks thoroughly under cold water to remove dirt. Trim the base and leafy tops. Reserve some tender leaves for garnish. Thinly slice the celery on a diagonal into roughly 1/8-inch pieces to yield about 4 cups.
- 2
Prepare apple
Core the green apple and dice into small 1/4-inch pieces. To prevent browning if not using immediately, toss apple with 1 teaspoon lemon juice from the dressing portion.
- 3
Toast walnuts
In a small dry skillet over medium heat, toast walnuts, stirring frequently, for 3–4 minutes until fragrant and lightly browned. Remove from heat and let cool; roughly chop if whole.

Assemble salad
In a large bowl combine the sliced celery, diced apple, chopped toasted walnuts, and crumbled feta or goat cheese. Add chopped celery leaves for extra flavor and color.
Dressing
- 5
In a small jar or bowl combine extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey (or maple syrup), sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk vigorously or shake with a tight lid until emulsified and slightly thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning — add more salt, pepper, or lemon to balance sweetness and acidity.

Pour dressing over the assembled salad and toss gently until everything is evenly coated. Let sit 5 minutes to meld flavors, then toss again before serving.
