apple rocket salad recipe with arugula goat cheese honey and walnuts in a bowl with sliced apples.

Arugula Apple Salad

Kelly Jensen
This arugula apple salad recipe is a bright and fresh appetizer or side dish, with arugula greens, sliced apples, walnuts, tossed with a 5-minute honey vinaigrette dressing. It's simple and fun, with a nice flavor combination from the peppery arugula, sweet apples, and honey.
