Maple Vinaigrette Ingredients

Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Kale

    Wash the baby kale thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with a clean towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture. Place the kale in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Slice the Apple

    Core the apple and slice it thinly. You can leave the skin on for added texture and color. Add the apple slices to the bowl with the kale.

  3. 3

    Add Gorgonzola

    Crumble the gorgonzola cheese into small pieces and sprinkle it over the salad.

  4. 4

    Add Almonds and Prosciutto

    Scatter the sliced almonds evenly over the salad. Tear the prosciutto into bite-sized pieces and add it to the mix.

Maple Vinaigrette Preparation

  1. 5

    Combine Vinaigrette Ingredients

    In a small bowl or jar, combine the olive oil, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 6

    Whisk or Shake

    Whisk the ingredients together until well combined, or secure the lid on the jar and shake vigorously until emulsified.

  3. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the maple vinaigrette over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
