Walnut Apple Salad

First, to be clear, I have no original thoughts, so I am sure I got this salad from somewhere, or at least the idea.

Large spinach (whole leafs)
White cabbage (chopped)
Granny Smith apples (cubes)
Macintosh apples (cubes)
Red seedless grapes (sliced in two)
Crumbled blue cheese
Crumbled feta
Handful of walnuts (chopped)
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar

All of these ingredients can be substituted for with like ingredients based on personal preference.  The point is to have the greens and the fresh fruit as the bulk of the salad, and to have cheeses and walnuts in small quantities to add flavor and protein.

Create a bed of spinach and cabbage on bottom of salad bowl.  Place apples, grapes, walnuts and crumbles over bed.  Sprinkle with olive oil and balsamic.  Toss and eat.

It is a choice.
