Curried Apple Noodle Salad

My entry for New York Apple Association’s "NY Big Apple Salad Contest" is gluten free, vegetarian, packed with fiber and absolutely swoon worthy! How fun is it to spiralize something you usually just slice and have as a snack?! If you don't have a spiralizer, feel free to just julienne the apple, it will taste just the same. 

I used honeycrisp apples, but you can use any variety of crisp apple. Pick the biggest ones you can find and leave the skin on for extra vitamins and crunch!

Curried Apple Noodle Salad

3 ounces plain low-fat yogurt

½ Tablespoon mild curry powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/2 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoons Dijon mustard

2 Tablespoons sliced green onion

1 extra large Honeycrisp apple, spiralized

4 cups mixed salad greens

¼ cup chopped pistachios

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, curry powder, salt, apple cider vinegar, Dijon and green onion.

In a large mixing bowl, gently stir together the apple spirals with the dressing.

To serve, place an equal amount of salad greens on 4 serving plates. Top with apple salad and chopped pistachios. Serve immediately.
