You can avoid if you like the salad plain. 2) Furthermore, the lemon juice, honey and pinch of pepper powder give an excellent combination of taste to the salad. 3) As Apple has lots of fiber, it is a good choice to add in the salad. You can use a green apple or pear fruit or raw mango in place of the red apple. 4) If you like pure vegetable salad don't add apple.
