Salad and Salad Dressing Recipes
Waldorf Salad is an old favorite, and simplicity is the key.
Mixing the apples with the mayonnaise immediately before adding the remaining ingredients will prevent the apples from browning. There is no need for lemon juice in this recipe.
Instead of mayonnaise, you can use blue cheese dressing, but toss the apples in a little lemon juice first to prevent browning.
Personally, I don't like the raisins in this salad, so I omit them.
If you don't think the salad will be sweet enough, you can add a very small amount of sugar to the mayonnaise. I have always found it to be sweet enough without it.
Craisins can be used instead of raisins.
If you would like to make a main meal of this salad, simply add chopped deli chicken.
I think the walnuts taste much better if roasted, but they do not need to be. Do as you please with the walnuts!
Whole grapes may be added to this salad, if desired.
Feta cheese is a wonderful addition to this salad, sprinkled over the top of individual servings at serving time.
Any sweet apples can be used.
This salad is best served the day it is made.
