I couldn’t ever find the perfect Waldorf salad – one that wasn’t too mayonaise-y tasting, yet one that still held enough of the original flavor to be called a Waldorf. So I mixed and matched and experimented, and finally came up with a perfect twist on the classic Waldorf Salad recipe. Now I get requests for it at every family get together!
You will need:
- 2 Granny Smith apples, cored and diced
- 1 Red Delicious apple, cored and diced
- 1 Asian pear, cored and cubed
- 1 stalk celery, diced
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- 1 cup golden raisins
- 1 cup seedless green grapes, halved
- 1 ½ cups sweetened dried cranberries
- 1 ¼ cups plain yogurt
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the Granny Smith apples, Red Delicious apple, Asian pear, celery, almonds, golden raisins, grapes and cranberries. In a separate bowl, stir together the yogurt, white sugar, brown sugar, mayonnaise, lemon juice and cinnamon. Pour the dressing over the fruit mixture and stir gently until evenly coated.
