Around the holidays we were talking with friends about some of their favorite family dishes and it reminded me that my mom would frequently make Waldorf Salad. I don’t know when this became old-fashioned or just not in style, but I haven’t had it in years. While in New York last year we had lunch at the Waldorf-Astoria and ordered the salad of course. Theirs was similar to my mom’s but they slivered their apples, while we always just chopped them. It’s such a nice salad to round out a dinner and it’s so simple to make. I think it’s time to bring this salad back to life. It is a great addition to almost any meal, whether it’s grilled chicken or something a little more complex.
