Waldorf Salad

The memories this brings back. As one of my mom's favorites, I had it at least once a month growing up. I made it with walnuts and just as written and it's perfect. Crunchy, sweet and delicious. Don't change it and don't leave anything out and it's wonderful.

Made this based on the ingredients I had on hand. It was a little too sweet for us and would have liked a little more celery in proportion to the apples.

Wonderful salad. I left out the brown sugar, as I didn't see a need to add it!

Delicious. I used 4 different kinds of apples which gave this salad a great taste. I've made Waldorf Salads before but have never added the brown sugar. I love the way the brown sugar offset the slight lemon tang. We used walnuts and added some dried cranberries. Great recipe, thanks for posting.

Very good! I made it as written but lo and behold I was out of brown sugar! I was so sure I had some. I used white sugar instead and adjusted the amount by taste. I think next time I may leave out the celery, to me it was a bit overwhelming in taste. My husband loves "apple salad" this was simple and quick. I added a pear in with my apples and used walnuts for the nuts.

Yummy! I added a little more mayo, cinnamon and nutmeg. I also had some grapes that needed used up- so I halved them and tossed them in. YUM! I served this with grilled sliced ham, made a great summer dinner. thanks for the post Nancy!

Nancy, your recipe for Waldorf Salad is wonderful. Though this is considered a "typical" recipe, I like the flavor. It allows for ALL of the items to be tasted, not overwhelmed by just one flavor. I enjoy wrapping your recipe in Leaf Lettuce and serving as a finger-food. Great for buffets! Also, we love it with cashews for an extra twist.

Waldorf has always been one of - if not "the" - my favorite. Over the years by experimenting I have come up with what I enjoy as the best dressing for it. Mayonaise, lemon juice, Durkee's Sauce (careful, it is strong,) and poppy seeds. I try to make the dressing the day before to let the flavors blend.

I tried this recipe and about 4 others for Thanksgiving and I was thrilled with everyone I tried. This one was a walk down memory lane for me cuz my Mom always made this for the holidays.

I found it didn't have enough flavor as written, so I added another tsp. of lemon juice, 2 tsp of honey, and some salt and black pepper. That did it. Looking at the other reviews, it seems I wasn't alone in needing more sweetness. Good basic recipe though, and I look forward to playing with it in the future!

So simple and so good. I made mine with walnuts and Miracle Whip. We had this tonight with The Best Potato Soup Ever! # 145488 and garlic cheese toast.

Yum. I added mini marshmellows and DH and I enjoyed it as a side with barbecue chicken.

OK, now I know what was missing: time. I'd suggest giving it a few hours/ overnight just so the flavors do their thing. I shared some with the neighbor because he said this was his favorite salad. Too bad--now i have to make more for me tomorrow.

This is the Waldorf Salad that I remember as a child, simple and flavorful. For the nuts, I added my "Sweet & Spicy Glazed Nuts" (#57257)which added a nice crunch yet the spiciness was not overpowering. I know I'll make this one again. Thank you for sharing it.
