Instructions

  • Grate your apple and put it in a large bowl. Squeeze fresh lemon juice on it and mix well so that it doesn’t darken later. Add all remaining salad ingredients to the same bowl and mix.
  • Add all sauce ingredients EXCEPT poppy seeds to your blender and process until smooth. Then add the poppy seeds and stir for 1-2 seconds just enough to blend into your sauce. Pour the dressing over the salad, mix well, and refrigerate for 1 hour or longer before serving.

notes

*If you don’t have a powerful blender like Vitamix or Blendtec, soak your cashews in boiling water for at least 30 minutes and drain before blending. This will help soften your cashews enough to blend them smoothly. You’ll notice that the recipe calls for lemon juice twice. The first example is to prevent darkening and off-flavor of apples. The second example is for poppy seed salad dressing. Both are required. Use a tart apple like granny smith for the best tangy flavor. Do not mix poppy seeds with sauce. Be sure to add them only AFTER the dressing has been processed. Refrigerate 1 hour (or more) before serving for best flavor. However, if time does not allow, you can enjoy it right away.
