Grilled Apple Salad With Brown Sugar Vinaigrette Dressing

• FOR THE SALAD:
• 2 whole Gala Apples, Sliced Across Into 1/4-inch Slices And Drizzled With Olive Oil
• 1 bag (about 5 Oz. Bag) Mixed Greens And Spinach
• 1/3 cups Extra Sharp White Cheddar Cheese, Shaved
• 1/2 cups Pecans, Whole And Toasted
• _____
• FOR THE VINAIGRETTE:
• 2/3 cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 2/3 cups Apple Cider Vinegar
• 1-1/2 Tablespoon Dark Brown Sugar
• 2 whole Green Onions, Minced
• 3 Tablespoons Basil, Chopped
• 1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard
• 1/2 teaspoons Ceyenne Pepper
• 1/4 teaspoons Salt

1. To grill apples: Slice apples across into about 1/4 inch slices. (Do not cut in half because you will loose the beautiful star shape on the inside of the galas). Drizzle with olive oil and grill over medium heat 3-4 minutes per side.
2. For the vinaigrette, just place the olive oil, cider vinegar and remaining ingredients into a blender and mix. You could actually whisk it by hand if you want to.
3. To assemble the salad, place the greens in a large bowl, top with grilled apple slices, shaved cheddar cheese and toasted pecans. Drizzle with vinaigrette right before serving. ENJOY!
