Apple Lemon Basil Salad Recipes

APPLE LEMON BASIL SALAD

Apple Lemon Basil Salad image

This awesome salad is a "No Cook", "Simple" and (if you have a food processor) "20 Minutes or Less" recipe. It's a shredded salad that is easily adapted to smaller or larger servings and would be great for a potluck or bbq. The dressing is lemony and tangy. Use whatever apples appeal to you, but I don't recommend Granny Smith. A bit tart is okay, but the dressing is tangy and a sweeter apple helps balance that. I used Pink Ladies. The salad did fine overnight in the refrigerator, I was happy to find that the apples did not discolor and stayed crunchy overnight.

Time 20m

Yield 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/4 cup plain nonfat yogurt (unflavored and unsweetened)
1/2 cup sour cream (you can use lite sour cream but NOT non-fat)
2 tablespoons lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice, fresh squeezed (pulp is fine)
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
4 cups shredded apples, core the apples but leave the skins on (if you have a food processor with a shredding blade shredding takes hardly a minute)
1 cup shredded carrot, unpeeled is fine
2 cups golden raisins
3/4 cup basil, chiffonade (simply take leaves and roll them up all together and use knife to make thin slices)
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

To make the dressing, whisk together yogurt and sour cream in a small mixing bowl.
Add the rest of the dressing ingredients and whisk together well. (Just to clarify, total light brown sugar is 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon).
Mix the shredded apple, carrot, and raisins together in a large mixing or salad bowl.
Add the dressing to the salad and toss/stir well.
At this point taste the salad. It should be pretty tangy. Toss the salad with 1/4 tsp table salt and this will cut the tanginess. If you wish to cut the tanginess any more, add salt by "the pinch" and taste. Be very careful not to add too much.
I prefer to add the basil right before serving.
Basil can vary in strength, so add 1/2 cup to the salad and mix. Taste and add remaining basil if necessary. The basil flavor becomes more prominent the longer the salad sits.
You can serve right away, but I like to let the salad sit covered in the fridge to "mellow" for 1/2 hour to an hour.
