Chicken Waldorf Salad

Recipe Description

instant oatsThis Chicken Waldorf Salad is my take on the classic Waldorf salad which was first made in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City in 1896! A Waldorf salad is a fruit and nut salad which is usually made from celery, apples, walnuts and grapes with a mayo dressing. My version adds chicken for that little something extra.  

To make this salad, I simply whisk mayo, yogurt, lemon juice and salt together in a large bowl to prepare a dressing. Then I add chicken, apple, grapes, celery and walnuts. It’s as simple as that, but your dining companions will love it!

To make my Chicken Waldorf Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
