    I guess the biggest decision now is what dressing...............trying to decide if I want to use mayo or vinegar.

    This is a recipe for blue cheese and pear salad, but it would probably work with apples too. I use the dressing recipe on many different salads. It's fantastic. I don't bother with candying the pecans (just toss them in plain).

    Cabbage, apples and finely chopped onion... make a sweet version of a coleslaw dressing using mayo, vinegar, sugar and a splash of milk with a bit of salt and pepper.

    So yummy!

    There's a resturant that uses pickles apples along with cranberries, almonds, and feta cheese and it is AMAZING. I would do a quick search for pickled apples if you want to try something a little different.

    I have a recipe that is apples, cool whip and chopped up snicker bars. Probably not what you had in mind though, lol.
