Insalata a Sorpresa (Apple, Green Bean and Bell Pepper Salad)

3/4 cup toasted walnut pieces
4 tablespoon honey
pinch + 1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup vegetable or light olive oil
1/8 tsp black pepper
1 red bell pepper, cut into match sticks
4 ozs thin green beans, ends trimmed, or regular green beans, ends trimmed and cut in half lengthwise, parboiled for 3 minutes.
2 apples, unpeeled and cut into match sticks
2 heads Belgian endive, cut into match sticks

Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C). In a small bowl, mix together the walnuts, 2 tablespoon of the honey and the pinch of salt. Spread the walnuts on a greased baking sheet and cook for 5 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove and set aside. In a food processor or blender, combine the vinegar, oil, the remaining honey, the remaining salt and the pepper. Process until the mixture is creamy and well blended. In a large bowl, toss the bell pepper, green beans, apples and endive with the dressing. Sprinkle each serving with the honey-roasted walnuts.
