This easy, all-American salad was first served at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in NYC in 1893. Made with apples, celery, grapes, walnuts, and a plant-based mayonnaise dressing, it’s still a favorite light, delicious addition to any meal.
Serves 4 to 6 (makes about 6 cups with lettuce in salad).
Ingredients:
2 cored and chopped apples, unpeeled
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 cup red seedless grapes, halved or quartered
1 oz. coarsely chopped walnuts (about ½ cup)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 cups chopped/torn butter lettuce, or whole leaves (optional; see Step 2)
¼ to ½ cup plant-based mayonnaise (see recipe below)
