Waldorf Salad
Ingredients
- 4 medium red and/or green apples
- 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup pecans or walnuts
- 2/3 cup mayonnaise
Instructions
Wash, core and dice unpeeled apples. Sprinkle lemon juice over them and toss together gently to coat, then sprinkle brown sugar over the apples and toss again. Chill for at least 20 minutes. Add celery and nuts then stir in mayonnaise, adding only enough for desired consistency. Serve on a bed of greens. Variation: This salad can easily become a summer luncheon main dish by adding cooked, diced chicken. You will probably need to add a little more mayonnaise. Another nice variation is halved grapes in addition to the apples, or pears as a replacement for the apples.
