- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1-2 cloves garlic crushed
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Combine lemon juice, olive oil, mustard, garlic, and salt and pepper in a small bowl. Give it a quick whisk and set aside.

Notes
Make ahead & storage tips:
- This salad doesn’t keep well for a long period of time because the apple will brown and the walnuts will become soft. However, it can be made in advance and stored as long as ingredients are stored separately. (Cabbage and celery together and raisins and walnuts in separate containers — slice up the apple right before serving).
- Dressing stays good for 3 to 5 days in an airtight container in the fridge. It can be made ahead of time — just shake it up before adding it to the salad.
