Our favorite is apple salad. I'm not sure what qualifies it as a Waldorf salad. The walnuts, I think.
I noticed that some of you use celery and you could add either of these if you like. Anyway, here is what I do. 1/2 apple per person 1/2 banana per apple - that is how I start to get the amount that I want. For instance: 4 apples 2 bananas Maybe a cup of grapes halves - or dried dates, raisins, etc. 1 cup of mini marshmallows Dressing is about 1/3 Miracle Whip and 2/3 Cool Whip I like a generous amount of the dressing and just scoop it on - don't usually measure. Okay, now I'm cooking like my grandmother. It's a favorite with my family. |
I make Waldorf Salad with. apples, celery, walnuts. My dressing is whipped whipping cream.Gently fold it in. I know it's not traditional but Wow you should taste it. Yum

I love waldorf salad, but have lightened up my dressing quite a bit. I use equal parts mayo and plain yogurt(usually greek yogurt because that is what I always have around) - add a little sugar, either fresh lemon juice or apple cider vinegar - just to taste. This is good on fruit salad, like waldorf, but also makes an amazing dressing for a veg salad - I don't think the dressing suffers from using the lower fat versions of both the mayo and yogurt.
