In the summer, I don't like to prepare or eat large meals, so I often make salads. I'm always on the outlook for new and interesting recipes, and this one is a winner that I like to make for company. —Rhonda Crowe Victoria, British Columbia

I really love this salad because it great combination. Instead cooking the apple I cut them up into chuck. I don't like cooked apples very well.

Not too impressed with this salad. It just didn't have that much flavor. After broiling the apples for 3 minutes, they were soft. The brie wanted to stick together and the dressing just didn't give much flavor. Not a disaster but not one I'd make again.
