I used this as a base recipe. I added some vanilla lite yogurt and a dash of lemon juice to the mayo. I used pecans instead of walnuts. I also added grapes, marshmallows, and dried cranberries to it. Turned out very tasty,

This is exactly how my grandmother made waldorf salad...if she could afford it she would also add grapes...this is comfort food with lovely memories of my grandmothers kitchen. Thanks so much for posting this recipe!

I like the simplicity of this recipe. It is very easy to put together and is also very delicious. i added a little Greek yogurt to the mayonnaise and also added some dried red currants. I am serving this dish with dinner tonight (our son and family are coming over) but DH & I could not resist sampling it at lunch time. Thanks Darlene, for such a nice recipe.
