Veggie Wednesday

Veggies and fruit in one of my favorite combinations.

Classic Waldorf Salad

Created at New York's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in 1896 by the maître d'hôtel, Oscar Tschirky.

1 cup apples chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup celery, chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup raisins (optional)
1/4 cup walnuts (optional)

Sprinkle chopped apples with lemon juice.
Add all other ingredients.
Toss to coat all pieces with mayonnaise.

Serves 4 as a side.
