Cold, Crisp and Creamy

When I worked at a party house this salad was requested most often, especially for weddings. Sometimes we had to make batches of waldorf salad big enough to feed 400 people that was a lot of apple chopping. It really is a delicious salad, especially in the hot weather. It’s nice, cold and crisp. Be very careful if using as a picnic salad, it has to remain cold due to the mayonnaise.
