I loved it!!! It was so refreshing on a balmy evening in Florida. I followed the recipe exactly, and added dried cranberries. I did use non-fat mayo however, and it was still great!! I would give this the 5 star rating. Thanks for sharing...

I rate this 5 stars because DH who does not like Waldorf Salad said that it was good. I did not have a lemon so I substituted fresh lime juice & in place of walnuts I used nut topping. I mixed Gala and Granny Smith apples. I particularly liked the mix of the two tastes, one tart and one sweet. Thanks strawberryjane for a good recipe.
