Yogurt replaces the traditional mayonnaise in a refreshing version of this American classic.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups apple (1 large apple), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup seedless grapes, halved
  • 1 cup celery (2-3 ribs), cut into 1/4-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup toasted walnuts, coarsely chopped
  • 1 lemon, juice and zest (about 2-3 tablespoons juice)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, zest, yogurt and honey. In a large salad bowl, gently toss the apples, grapes, celery, and walnuts with the dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Substitute nonfat Greek yogurt for a lower-fat version if you like.

Serving Suggestion

Showcasing the fruits of autumn, a scoop of Waldorf salad is delicious with a brunch omelet or frittata, or served on a bed of bibb lettuce or spinach alongside spanakopita or stuffed grape leaves.
