1 teaspoon grainy mustard
1 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp parsley, chopped
Instructions
1. Place salad greens on a large serving bowl or platter and set aside.
2. Thinly slice the apple, shave the fennel, and thinly slice the red onion. Place all in a medium-sized bowl and toss with 1 Tbsp lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.

4. When ready to serve, place apples, fennel, and red onion over the top of salad. Drizzle with salad dressing and finish with toasted walnuts, feta cheese, and extra parsley.
5. Serve immediately and enjoy!
