Autumn Apple Pepita Salad

Autumn Apple Pepita Salad
  • 1/4 cup hulled pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil, or as needed (optional)
  • Dressing:
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon minced shallot
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • Salad:
  • 3 cups torn romaine lettuce leaves
  • 3 cups torn baby spinach
  • 1 cup dried apple chips
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup crumbled bleu cheese


  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Toss pepitas with 1 teaspoon olive oil in a bowl; spread onto a baking sheet.
  2. Toast in the preheated oven until pepitas start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 5 minutes. Let cool.
  3. Combine 1/3 cup olive oil, vinegar, sugar, mustard, mayonnaise, shallot, and black pepper together in a container with a tight-fitting lid. Screw on lid tightly and shake dressing vigorously.
  4. Toss the toasted pepitas, dressing, romaine lettuce, spinach, apple chips, cranberries, and bleu cheese together in a large bowl.
