Harvest Salad with Apple Cider Vinaigrette

After eating ALL of the junk food during the holidays, salads are sounding really good right about now. I love salads with as many toppings as possible and this is such a good one! How can you go wrong with crisp apples, salty bacon, creamy feta and sweet cinnamon glazed almonds on top?? The dressing provides the perfect amount of tang to balance it all out. A little goes a long way though!

I mean, how could anyone resist a bowl of that goodness?? Make this ASAP and thank me later!
