I've been making this for several years & everyone loves it (it's so refreshing). I halve the recipe too and use red grapes in place of the golden delicious apples.

I really enjoyed this even with the lightened up changes I made. I used miracle whip, low cal yogurt I strained in place of sour cream and garnished with low cal whole wheat toast strips. This is a wonderful salad and the lemon and ginger really gives this a kick!

Very tasty! It's quite similar to the version of Waldorf Salad I ate growing up. It was a bit on the sweet side. I think next time, I'd use less honey and a bit more ginger. Thanks Bleu Pantry! Made for PAC Fall 2007.
