Ingredients

1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
6 cups mixed baby greens
3 cups trimmed watercress
1 Belgian endive, sliced
1 1/2 pounds Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine vinegar and thyme in small bowl. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    Step 2

    Combine greens, watercress and endive in large bowl. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
