Sharing Recipes--Waldorf Salad


This salad was first created at the Waldorf Hotel in New York City in the 1890s. The original salad combined apples, celery and mayonnaise. There are many ways to build this tasty salad. I prefer to substitute yogurt for mayonnaise and add oranges. Feel free to add or substitute your favourite fruits.


Ingredients

6 ounces low-fat plain yogurt
1/2 cup orange juice
1 1/2 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
3 apples
1 large orange
1 rib celery
1/2 cup golden raisins
3 tbsp chopped cashews

Procedure
  • Cut apples into 1/2" chunks.
  • Peel and separate orange into segments.
  • Chop celery.
  • In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, orange juice, honey, and cinnamon.
  • Add the remaining ingredients.
  • Stir to mix.
Makes 6 servings
