Sweet and Tangy Apple Summer Salad

There’s nothing like the refreshing crunch of apples on a hot summer day, and this vibrant salad brings that crispness front and center. Juicy Honeycrisp and tart Granny Smith apples are the stars of this dish, offering the perfect balance of sweetness and zing. Combined with watermelon, blueberries, lime, mint, and a salty sprinkle of feta and Tajín, this salad is both cooling and complex. The apples not only hold their texture beautifully but also soak up just enough of the lime and mint to make each bite pop. It’s a quick, no-fuss recipe that tastes like sunshine in a bowl.
