Honey Balsamic Viniagrette
1/4 cup good balsamic vinegar
3/4 cup your favorite olive oil
3-4 tablespoons honey -- start with three, then go to taste from that point
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 pinch thyme
1 pinch allspice
Apple salad
2 Honey Crisp apples, sliced
4 slices good smoked bacon, fried crisp and crumbled
4 ounces dried, sweetened cranberries
2 ounces feta, crumbled
1/3 cup walnut pieces, toasted

1
Whisk all ingredients together. If you're ambitous, you can whisk everything and then whisk in the olive oil, making an emulsion that won't separate; I find it easier to just whisk it or shake it before I apply it. Set dressing aside.
2
Sliced unpeeled apples and arrange in a spiral patttern on a salad plate. Or, if presentation is not an issue, dice and put in a bowl.
3
Toss together the bacon, cranberries and walnuts. Put a portion of the topping over each plate of apples, or atop the apples in the bowl.
4
Drizzle viniagrette over salad. If you're working in a bowl, go ahead and toss, to get the apples nicely coated and turn them brown in advance of oxydation doing so.
5
Crumble feta cheese atop each portion, or the entire bowl.
