January 1: An Apple a Day


One of my favorite salads involves apples, and since we're to eat one a day, this is a nice way to accomplish this.

1 head of red leaf lettuce (or butterhead, or whatever kind you like)
1 apple, cut into slices, skin on
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup gorgonzola (fancy name for blue cheese, or you can use feta), crumbled
1/4 cup craisins

Dressing:

1/2 cup canola oil
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 Tbs. chopped green onions
1 Tbs. maple syrup (pure is best, but you can use Mrs. B if you want)
salt and pepper to taste

Conversation starter: Tell us the weirdest/wildest New Year's resolution you've ever made.
