Ingredients:

✅ 2 green apples, diced (Granny Smith works best for a tart contrast!)
✅ 1 cup fresh or dried cranberries
✅ ½ cup pecans, roughly chopped
✅ 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

Pro Tips:

✔ Make it a meal by serving over baby spinach or mixed greens with a drizzle of balsamic vinaigrette!

This salad is perfect for fall, holiday gatherings, or just a quick, healthy snack!
