Preparation time: 15 minutes
Total time: 15 minutes
Servings: 4

Necessary ingredients:
- 200 g Delaco Emmentaler, diced
- 1 celery stalk, sliced thinly
- 1 yellow apple, sliced
- ½ red onion, sliced thinly
- 1 teaspoon flaxseeds
- 1 teaspoon raw sunflower seeds
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 green lettuce leaves, for decoration

Useful tips about ingredients:
- Delaco's Emmentaler is known for its creamy texture and slightly sweet taste, which pairs wonderfully with the other ingredients. You can also experiment with other types of cheese, such as Gouda or Cheddar, to create a salad with a different flavor profile.
- The yellow apple adds a sweet and crunchy note. Choose a fresh, high-quality apple for the best results. If you prefer a more tart taste, you can opt for a green apple.
- Flaxseeds and sunflower seeds not only add texture but also provide nutritional benefits. Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 and fiber, while sunflower seeds are an excellent source of vitamin E.

Preparing the salad:
1. Start by preparing the dressing. In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard, honey, and olive oil. Use a whisk or a fork to combine the ingredients well until you achieve a smooth mixture. You can adjust the proportions of mustard and honey according to your preferences – if you like a sweeter dressing, add a little more honey.
2. In a large bowl, add the diced Emmentaler, celery slices, apple slices, and red onion rings. Gently mix to avoid crushing the ingredients.
3. Once the dressing is ready, pour it over the salad and carefully mix everything so that each ingredient is well coated.
4. To serve, place a layer of green lettuce leaves on a large plate. Then, add the Emmentaler salad on top, decorating with flaxseeds and sunflower seeds for added crunch.

Serving and suggestions:
The Emmentaler salad from Delaco is served cold, making it perfect for a summer meal or as an appetizer at a dinner with friends. You can pair it with a refreshing drink, such as iced tea with lemon or a light white wine that will complement the flavors of the salad.

Possible variations:
- If you want a heartier salad, you can add diced cooked chicken breast or canned tuna. These will turn the salad into a main dish.
- Another delicious option would be to add avocado for extra creaminess and nutrients.
- Instead of Dijon mustard, you can try a yogurt-based dressing mixed with herbs for a fresh note.

Calories and nutritional benefits:
This salad is not only delicious but also nutritious. One serving contains about 250 calories, making it an excellent choice for a light meal. Emmentaler provides protein and calcium, while the vegetables and fruits bring essential vitamins and fiber.

Frequently asked questions:
- Can the salad be prepared a day in advance?
Yes, but it is recommended to add the dressing only at the time of serving to maintain the freshness of the ingredients.
- Can I replace Emmentaler with another type of cheese?
Certainly, other cheeses can offer different flavors. Experiment and find the combination you like best!
