I just love this fruit salad and eat it all year long (Creme de Colorado is one of my favorite cookbooks!). It does make a wonderful addition to a holiday meal. I love the texture of the Cheddar cheese in this and like to cut the cubes small. This is the first "waldorf style" salad I've seen with the cheese. Thanks Rochsann! Roxygirl

I took this to a potluck and it went over just okay, but I really liked it. The combination of the apples and cheese was a winner. I didn't have any macadamia nuts so I substituted walnuts because they go so well with apples and celery and it was a lovely balance. The vanilla yogurt I used was a little too "vanilla-y" so I might just try plain whole milk or Greek yogurt and sweeten it a bit with honey. I doubled the cinnamon because I love it and I think there are other spices that would work here too like coriander or cardamom, or a little freshly grated nutmeg. I'll make it again, for sure!

Absolutely delicious! I could eat this anytime, day or night. Even my husband enjoyed it.(gasp!) The only change I made was to add the cinnamon with the yogurt and orange juice, just because I didn't read the directions. I would not change a thing, this is perfect! Thanks, rochsann, for another great recipe!

I love how cooking brings people together, whether it's sharing recipes or sharing a special meal. My sister and I love to talk recipes, and she is great at researching any recipe questions and hunting down recipes. My whole family enjoys cooking, so holidays are particularly fun when we're all cooking together. I teach social studies, and I incorporate historical recipes and foods into my lessons about culture. Cooking connects the past and present. I've realized how relaxing cooking is to me, so despite being very busy with teaching, I make time to cook.
