For the Dressing

2 tablespoons Lemon Juice fresh
1/2 cup Mayonnaise or Greek yogurt

Instructions

Preparation

Wash, core, and dice the Honeycrisp apples into bite-sized cubes. Toss with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Slice the celery into small, uniform pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the diced apples, chopped celery, halved grapes, and dried cranberries.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and brown sugar until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the apple mixture, tossing gently. Add chopped pecans last.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

Add grilled chicken for a heartier option or sprinkle fresh herbs for extra flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
