Sweetness and Smoke
At the heart of the Maple Crunch Salad from Inspired Go is the irresistible pairing of sweet and smoky flavours. Crisp apples and juicy red grapes bring a natural sweetness that feels vibrant and fresh, while a generous layer of smoked cheddar cheese adds a rich, savoury depth. This contrast is where the magic happens: the sweet notes play off the smoky richness, creating a harmony that’s comforting yet intriguing with every bite. And then there’s the vinaigrette—a smoked maple citrus dressing that pulls everything together. The bold flavour of maple takes center stage, offering just the right touch of smoky sweetness while a hint of citrus adds brightness. It’s a balance of flavours that’s both unexpected and deeply satisfying, making this salad a true autumn delight!
All About That Crunch
True to its name, the Maple Crunch Salad delivers a satisfying crunch in every forkful. From the first bite, you’ll experience a delightful texture contrast that keeps things interesting. The crisp apples and crunchy almonds provide a refreshing bite, while fresh celery and pickled onions add another layer of texture and zest. The almonds, in particular, offer that crave-worthy nutty crunch that elevates the salad to a whole new level of satisfaction. Nestled on a bed of tender spinach and greenhouse lettuce, the combination of crunchy and fresh textures makes this salad as dynamic as it is delicious. It’s not just about the flavours - a little texture goes a long way, and this salad delivers!
