**Ingredients:**
– 4 large Honeycrisp Apples, cubed
– 1 lemon, juiced
– ⅓ cup mayonnaise
– 1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar
– 2 ribs celery, thinly sliced
– 1 cup seedless red grapes, halved
– ½ cup chopped pecans
– ½ cup dried cranberries
**Instructions:**
1. Begin by cubing the Honeycrisp apples and tossing them with freshly squeezed lemon juice. This helps to prevent browning and adds a zesty flavor.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and brown sugar until they form a smooth mixture. This will serve as the creamy and sweet base for the salad.
3. Add the cubed apples, thinly sliced celery, halved red grapes, chopped pecans, and dried cranberries to the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture.
4. Gently stir all the ingredients together until they are evenly coated with the creamy dressing. Ensure that each ingredient is well distributed throughout the salad.
5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. Chilling allows the flavors to meld together and enhances the overall taste of the salad.
6. Once chilled, serve the Easy Delectable Apple Salad as a refreshing side dish or light meal. Enjoy the delightful combination of crisp apples, juicy grapes, crunchy celery, and sweet cranberries, all brought together with a creamy dressing.
