• 1 lime, grated zest and juice
• 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint leaves
• 1 tart apple peeled, cored and sliced 1/4 inch thick
• 1 avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced 1/2 inch thick
• 1 cucumber, peeled, halved,seeded and sliced 1/4 inch thick
• 4 cups arugula (or watercress, washed and trimmed of tough stems)
• sea salt and pepper to taste
• 3 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions

1. Stir lime zest, juice and vinegar together. Slowly whisk in olive oil until incorporated. Stir in mint.
2. In a separate bowl, combine apple, avocado, cucumber and arugula. Drizzle with vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper. Toss and serve.

Notes

The apple gives it that fall feeling. If transporting to a game you might want to squeeze lime juice on the avocado first to keep from turning brown. Also can use any lettuce.
