Instructions
Salad
Warm a pan over medium heat, then add your walnuts to the pan. Stir frequently so the walnuts turn brown but don't burn. It should take about 5 minutes to toast your walnuts. Transfer your toasted walnuts to a small bowl and set aside to cool.
Place baby arugula in a large bowl, so you have space to mix in your salad toppings later. Top the arugula with SweeTango apples, Gouda cheese, farro, raisins, and toasted walnuts (that you set aside to cool).
Vinaigrette
Whisk together the olive oil, apple cider, vinegar, honey, mustard, and garlic powder in a small mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Drizzle your salad with the vinaigrette. Use tongs to gently coat your salad with the dressing. Serve!
