"In Mexico, we have our big celebration on Christmas Eve. My grandmother made this salad every Christmas Eve and she always prepared a double batch because she knew we would ask for seconds. This salad was always on the table, and it brings out some of the best memories of my childhood," says Alejandra Graf, Mexican foodstagrammer and expert in plant-based recipes based in Texas. "The ingredients for this Mexican Christmas salad are really simple and easy to find and there is no unique or challenging cooking technique to prepare it. The only secret is that you have to find the best apples around. The crunchier and sweeter, the better!" Do try it at home following Graf's recipe.
