I love a good wedge salad! They are cold, crisp and loaded with flavor! This balsamic wedge salad is loaded with apple, bacon, feta, and pecans. It’s crunchy, crisp and delicious. The balsamic dressing is super easy to mix together and just takes a drizzle to make your salad sing!

Want to bring a fun salad to a party? These wedge salads are perfect to place on a serving platter and have everyone grab one. You can also do variations of ranch and bacon wedge salads on the plate too for a fun variety that guests can choose from.
