Waldorf Salad
A variation on the original Waldorf salad.
Tips
In a hurry? Use the packaged coleslaw mixtures available in the produce sections of supermarkets.
The original salad developed at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City contained only apples, celery and mayonnaise. Chopped walnuts later became an integral part of the recipe-and here we add cabbage and raisins. Oh, well, recipes are always evolving!
