Apple-Cheddar Salad With Sweet Cream Vinaigrette image

I am not a fan of salads. I will normally have a cup of soup in there place. But, this salad has amazing flavor and taste. I am also posting ( included in this recipe) a sweet cream vinaigrette dressing to go along with this salad. Recipes come from Cuisine at home.
