To make this super-pleasant summery salad you will need the following:

1 bag fresh spinach leaves, washed
1 pink lady apple (gala or granny smith is cool too)
1/2 cup dried cranberries/Craisins®
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Goat cheese (go crazy here!)

Sweet honey-mustard vinaigrette ingredients:

6 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (even yellow mustard will do)

In large bowl, toss diced apple pieces, spinach, cranberries, walnuts and goat cheese. Make the honey-mustard vinaigrette and pour over salad right before serving. Yup, that's it!
