Oh this is very good, I love the addition of the apple pie spice, I made this in the morning but won't add in the apples until serving time, such as Spicy Gal I also added in some dried cranberries, we will enjoy this I am sure, thanks Lori!

Absolutely wonderful. We added a Trader Joe's mix of cranberries & golden raisins. It really adds a great complementary flavor. Can't say enough about this recipe, I love to make it for company.

I love this and make it over and over! I leave out the green onions, because I seldom have them. Any type apple will do, but I like the tart ones best. Blend the dressing in a small blender, and just throw in a touch of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Oh, and I also use splenda. Practically NO calories!

A new favorite!!! This was deeelicious! Mom's going to serve it to her next crowd. I didn't have apple pie spice so I dumped in a smidge each of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves & allspice. Delicious, easy & healthy! made for VegSwap 8/08.

I am taking this to a BBQ later today. Very light and refreshing! I added a bit more oil & vinegar to extend the dressing. I also added sweetened dried cranberries for added color and zing. I omitted the apple pie spice because I didn't have any on hand. I did not substitute for it. Just lovely! Thanks a bunch for posting Lauralie. I will be adding a photo as well.
