The Waldorf Salad
I had my first Waldorf Salad in New York City with my mother at the famous Waldorf Astoria Hotel where this salad originated in the early 19th century. It’s a classic!
This is really a simple salad with just a few ingredients: apples, walnuts, red grapes, and celery.
Try this simple refreshing classic recipe this summer, it’s easy. Also, you can make it non-dairy, reduced fat, and add protein with a few of Melissa’s Modifications.
