First served in Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in 1896, this salad is a classic. Originally made with lettuce, apples, celery and grapes mixed in a creamy mayo dressing.

The combination of juicy grapes and sweet crunchy apples is perfect with celery and lettuce. This Waldorf Salad is a must-try and since it’s so easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time. It’s delicious with grilled chicken, salmon or served as a sandwich salad with chopped chicken.
