At home in Salem, Oregon, Christine Vaught packs her chunky and nutritious salad with crunchy apple and celery, dried cranberries, blue cheese and almonds for a wonderful blend of tastes and textures.

1/2 cup chopped red apple |
1/4 cup dried cranberries |
1/3 cup fat-free mayonnaise |
2 lettuce leaves |
1 bacon strip, cooked and crumbled |
2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese |
2 tablespoons chopped almonds |
