A few comments after tasting the finished salad. I was pleased with the combination of juicy apples and hearty peanuts. Only next time I would take more apples and less peanuts. One more thing. Most of the layers of lettuce (except for apples and cheese) are fairly dry. Therefore, it is better not to spare mayonnaise on the grid.
