Waldorf Salad Recipe | American Classic 🇺🇸 | Ready in 15 minutes!

Vintage American Waldorf Salad
Named after the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York where it is said to have been invented, this salad is simple to put together. The combinations of the sweet and sour flavors along with the crisp and crunch is what makes this one of America’s favorite salads.
INGREDIENTS:
2 tart apples (Granny Smith’s variety), diced
2 sticks of celery, diced
1 cup red seedless grapes, halved
½ cup toasted walnuts or pecan nuts, chopped
¼ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon sugar
½ teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS:
Dice the celery and the apples. Cut the grapes into halves. Transfer all the fruit into a large bowl. Add sugar and lemon juice into the bowl and stir to fully coat the fruit. Set to one side.
Heat a small pan, then dry roast the walnuts. Stir to ensure even toasting and remove once the nuts release their aroma. Add the toasted walnuts into the fruit mix.
In a mixing jug, add mayonnaise and Greek yogurt. Whisk until smooth and fully blended.
Sprinkle salt into the fruit and then add in the wet ingredients. Fold in until the ingredients are combined.
Chill in the refrigerator for an hour before serving.
STORAGE:
Since it contains no delicate greens, this salad will keep for 3-5 days in an airtight container if stored in a refrigerator.
VEGAN VERSION:
For a dairy free/vegan version, use cup for cup vegan Greek yogurt (Kite Hill or Forager brands are great if you are in the US) and vegan mayonnaise.
