Healthy, because
The salad is full of vitamins and minerals: Vitamin C supports our immune system, calcium is important for strong bones, and plenty of magnesium helps us keep our nerves in stressful situations.
Even smarter
Apples should not be peeled, because the healthiest ingredients are concentrated in and directly under the skin. If you use organic apples, you can be sure that the peel is not waxed.
