Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.Wash and dry all produce. Core, then cut apple into 1-inch pieces.Trim fennel stalks, then quarter fennel bulb. Peel any wilted outer layers, then cut fennel crosswise into 1/4-inch slices.Add apples, fennel and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.Roast on the bottom rack of the oven, tossing halfway through, until tender, 26-28 min.
Meanwhile, cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces.Add potatoes, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 10-12 min.Drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat.
Pat pork dry with paper towels. Season with pepper and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) garlic salt.Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then pork.

Roast in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 8-10 min.** When pork is done, set aside to rest on the baking sheet, 2-3 min.
Meanwhile, roughly mash half the goat cheese, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter and 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) milk into potatoes until creamy. (NOTE: Store remaining goat cheese in the fridge until step 6.) Season with pepper and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt.
Add apricot spread, Dijon, half the honey, half the vinegar and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine. Reheat the same pan (from step 3) over medium-high.When hot, add sauce. Bring to a boil.Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, 1-2 min. (For 4 ppl, cook sauce 1-3 min).Remove from heat.
Add remaining honey, remaining vinegar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.Add arugula and spinach mix, roasted apples, roasted fennel and seed blend to the bowl with dressing, then toss to combine.Stir any pork resting juices from the baking sheet into sauce.Divide pork, potatoes and salad between plates.
