For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper to the dressing. If you prefer a sweeter dressing, add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup. To toast the pecans, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly golden. This salad is best served immediately after dressing to prevent the lettuce from wilting. Feel free to substitute other types of apples or nuts to suit your taste preferences.
