Steps:

  • Slice 1/4 of the top off of each apple and reserve. Using melon baller, scoop out the apple flesh to leave a hollow cavity (which will be filled with finished salad). Coarsely chop the apple flesh and mix with the remaining ingredients in large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the mixture in each hollowed out apple and place the reserved tops on the filling (any unused filling can be refrigerated for up to 1 day). Serve cold or at room temperature.
  • Cook's Note: To prevent the apples from turning brown while preparing the filling, place them in a bowl of water with the juice of 2 limes added.

6 Granny Smith apples
2 cups diced pineapple
1/2 cup diced celery
1/3 cup raisins
1/3 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sour cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Category Recipe Roundup
  • Mexican Chopped Salad. The first time I had authentic Mexican tacos – the kind made from a dear friend who’d moved here from Mexico – they blew my mind.
  • Mexican Shrimp Salad. If you want your Mexican salad to have a little more umami in it, try this shrimp salad instead. The combination of peeled shrimp, black bean salsa, corn, and more tastes fantastic.
  • Mexican Street Corn Salad with Avocado. Mexican street corn salad is for anyone who enjoys shoe peg corn salad or any dense, chunky salad with lots of fresh veggies and tons of flavor.
  • Chicken Quesadilla Salad. If you love the Quesadilla Explosion salad from Chili’s, then you’ll go crazy for this quick and easy homemade version. It takes only 30 minutes to make, though you’ll need to marinate your chicken for at least 3 hours ahead of time.
  • Cucumber Tomato Salad. This salad is for those who prefer their appetizers to be cool, refreshing, and supremely zesty. The salad itself is simple and uses only five ingredients – cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, Cotija cheese, and cilantro.
  • Taco Salad. I debated adding taco salad to the list because most people already have their own recipes for it. Everyone loves taco salad! In the end, though, I just couldn’t have a list of Mexican salad recipes without adding taco salad.
  • Mexican Fruit Salad. So, you may be thinking that fruit salad is pretty much fruit salad wherever you eat it, and to a certain extent, you’d be right.
  • Black Bean Salad. Black bean salad is a lot like black bean salsa, except it’s chunkier, heartier, and less saucy. If you clicked on the link, saw that enormous ingredients list, and ran back here screaming, stop!
  • Tomato and Tomatillo Salad. This simple recipe is quick and easy to prepare. Other than the dressing, it uses only five ingredients: vine-ripened tomatoes, tomatillos, avocado, Cotija cheese, and cilantro.
  • Ensalada Navideña. Ensalada Navideña, also known as Mexican Christmas fruit salad, is a sweet and fruity dessert salad traditionally served at — you guessed it — Christmas.
