Apple, Plum and Cherry Tomato Salad

Agree, we rarely cook salads with plums. Autumn is the time to correct this annoying mistake.

Ingredients

• 100 g assorted salad leaves
• 2 medium red apples
• 250 g plums
• 150 g cherry tomatoes
• 20 g parmesan
• 1/4 cup almonds
• 1/4 cup walnuts
• 4 tbsp. l. orange juice
• 2 tbsp. l. olive oil
• salt, freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1. Preheat a dry, heavy-bottomed skillet. Add almonds and walnuts and toast, 3 minutes, shaking the pan constantly. Transfer the nuts to a board and cool. When the nuts are cool, chop them coarsely.
2. Cut the plums into 4-6 pieces, cut the apples into thin slices, and the cherry tomatoes into quarters.
3. For dressing, whisk orange juice and olive oil, season with salt and pepper.
4. Combine the lettuce and the dressing in a salad bowl. Add tomatoes, apples and plums, stir gently. Parmesan into thin slices with a vegetable peeler. Divide the salad into bowls, sprinkle with nuts and Parmesan.
