Notes
Make-Ahead: You can make the dressing 2 days in advance and store it in the fridge in a mason jar. Slice the apple and prepare the rest of the ingredients right before assembling. Toss everything with the dressing and serve.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. However, keep in mind that the spinach will continue to wilt as it sits.
