Apple, Celery And Walnut Salad
serves 2-4
Recipe from cookthink
This is one of the seemingly endless number of variations on the classic Waldorf Salad. Typically, you'd find raisins instead of grapes. Some people prefer yogurt instead of mayonnaise. Others use pecans or some other nut. As long as the celery and apple are there, though, consider it a Waldorf.
