Sound familiar? I heard an advertisement on the radio for Paradise Bakery’s Fuji apple salad. They listed the ingredients and I immediately knew I had to recreate the recipe. Although I’ve never had their version (I hear it’s good), I can say that this was excellent! James really liked the Gorgonzola cheese and I enjoyed the fresh apples in the salad. The Paradise version has apple chips but I’m not a fan so I subbed real Fuji apples instead. We had our salad with fresh french baguette and olive oil/vinegar. I will definitely be making this again soon!
