Steps for Salad with Apples, Walnuts, and Cheese
First, clean and wash the salad greens thoroughly by leaving them to soak. You can use green salad or a mix with the addition, if you like, of celery or fennel. After washing them well, drain and spin them in a salad spinner to remove all excess water.
Then pour them into a large salad bowl. Wash the apple well, remove the core, and slice it thinly, keeping the peel. Sprinkle the slices with lemon juice to prevent browning. I recommend adding the apple slices just before serving the salad.
Also add the walnut halves, shaved cheese, and dress with oil, salt, pepper, and apple cider vinegar to taste. You can replace apple cider vinegar with balsamic vinegar if you prefer. Mix gently.

FAQ (Questions and Answers)
What can I substitute for walnuts and cheese
You can substitute walnuts with almonds, hazelnuts, or even a mix of nuts that you can find pre-packaged at the supermarket. Instead of parmesan, use Brie or scamorza (regular or smoked), Greek feta, or even Greek yogurt.
