A vibrant and healthy Apple Chicken Sausage Salad featuring sweet and savory flavors combined with fresh spring greens, juicy strawberries, crunchy walnuts, and tangy low-fat feta cheese, all tossed in a light apple cider vinegar and honey dressing.

Ingredients

Scale

Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil (or vegetable oil)

Salad

  • 2 links Johnsonville® Apple Chicken Sausage, sliced
  • 1 package pre-washed spring mixed greens
  • 6 fresh strawberries, sliced
  • 1/3 cup walnut pieces
  • 1/4 cup low-fat feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions

  1. Prepare Dressing: In a small bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar, honey, and canola oil. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is well combined and set aside for flavors to meld.
  2. Cook Sausage: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced Johnsonville® Apple Chicken Sausage and cook until lightly browned on both sides, about 4-5 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Assemble Salad: In a large salad bowl, combine the spring mixed greens, sliced strawberries, walnut pieces, crumbled low-fat feta cheese, and the cooked sausage slices.
  4. Add Dressing and Toss: Pour the prepared dressing over the salad mixture. Gently toss all ingredients together to evenly coat with dressing without bruising the delicate greens or strawberries.
  5. Serve: Serve the salad immediately to enjoy the fresh textures and balanced flavors at their best.

Notes

  • You can substitute walnuts with pecans or almonds for a different crunch.
  • Use low-fat or regular feta cheese based on your preference.
  • For a vegetarian option, replace chicken sausage with a plant-based sausage alternative.
  • Serve immediately after tossing to keep greens crisp and fresh.
  • This salad pairs well with crusty bread or as a light main dish.
