AN OLD FAVORITE SALAD

It is amazing how such a simple list of ingredients can come together to create such a delicious and completly flavored salad. This sweet, crunchy classic is a great salad for your Easter dinner. I know you all have this salad in your cookbooks, so this is just a reminder to try it again.




3/4 cup walnut or pecans

3 apples, cored, cut into 1 inch chunks

1 cup green or red seedless grape halves

2/3 cup sliced celery

1/3 cup mayonnaise

2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 tbsp plain yogurt

1/2 tsp salt



Microwave nuts for 30 seconds to toast (stir every 10 seconds), cool and chop

Add mayonnaise, lemon juice, yogurt, salt to a large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine thoroughly. Fold in apples, grapes, celery, and walnuts. Mix until evenly coated with the dressing.
