  • 1 apple, diced (preferably Honeycrisp or Fuji)

  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Whole grain or gluten-free bread

Make-Ahead Magic: This salad mixture can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Toast bread lightly to prevent sogginess.
