Directions
Step 1
Wash and core the apples, then slice them into thin wedges. Set aside.
Step 2
Toast the pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3–5 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool.

Thinly slice the red onion into half-moon shapes. Rinse under cold water to reduce its sharpness and pat dry with a paper towel.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 5
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, sliced apples, red onion, and pine nuts. Toss gently to mix.
Step 6
Crumble the feta cheese over the salad and sprinkle with fresh dill.
Step 7
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss lightly to coat everything evenly.
Step 8
Serve immediately as a light main course or as a side dish alongside grilled chicken or fish.
