Waldorf Salad | GreenSmoothieGirl
Find simple-but-satisfying enjoyment in this healthful, vegan Waldorf Salad recipe! I find I enjoy it most when I’m missing summer, or reveling in the crisp made even better on a new spring day. It’s topped with fresh celery, raisins, apples, and honey for a slightly sweet, crisp bite. The taste is a crowd-pleaser across the board; every time I’ve made it for a dinner or potluck, I get asked the recipe! And it is so simple (that’s a crowd-pleaser as well). It takes only 10 minutes to prep, and does best when sitting a few hours after making to maximize flavor. You don’t even have to touch it again before you’re ready to serve this delicious, mouthwatering, VEGAN take on the classic Waldorf Salad.
