zucchini apple salad

 OK, this is very good, exactly what I was hoping for to handle my October garden bounty.  Ideas from here, with some changes.  

Ingredients

• 1 pound zucchini, diced

• 3 medium apples, diced

• I omitted because I don't care for bell pepper though I would use a banana pepper or something else: ½ green bell pepper, diced

• ½ red onion, chopped or less - I used maybe 1/5 of yellow onion, chopped fine 

• 1/4 cup olive oil ⅓ cup vegetable oil

• 2 T apple cider vinegar  2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

• < 1/2 tsp sugar // 1 teaspoon white sugar

• 1 teaspoon dried basil

• 1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt

• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  pepitas (these were a great addition, and sharp cheddar cheese would be, too) 

   

Directions  

 Combine zucchini, apples, bell pepper, and onion in a serving bowl.

Whisk together oil, vinegar, sugar, basil, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined; drizzle over zucchini-apple mixture. Toss to coat.

Even better the next day.
