Apple and Celery Salad

Apple and Celery Salad from Gone Raw.

Ingredients: 
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup Dijon mustard (not raw, but I'm only 95% raw so it works for me)
5 teaspoons honey
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large bunch celery with leaves
1/2 cabbage, shredded
2 Carrots, shredded
2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, quartered, cored; each quarter cut into 2 wedges, then thinly sliced crosswise into triangle shapes
3/4 cup chopped walnuts



I used purple cabbage since it's pretty!




My bowl was not big enough to mix in.



Preparation: 
Whisk first 3 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in oil. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
Trim celery leaves and chop enough to measure 1 cup. Thinly slice stalks on deep diagonal. Place celery pieces in bowl of cold water. (Vinaigrette, celery leaves, and celery pieces can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.)
Drain celery; pat dry with paper towels. Combine celery, celery leaves, apples, cabbage and walnuts in large bowl. Add vinaigrette and toss to coat. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper.

It's pretty delicious!
