At a glance

You're looking at a quick, nutritious salad that comes together in about 20 minutes with mostly hands-on time being the toasting and crisping of ingredients. The star of the show is dry-toasted sage leaves—they turn wonderfully crispy and add a sophisticated crunch to roasted apples and walnuts tossed with a simple vinaigrette.
