Prepare the Crunchy Goodness:
- Begin by tossing together the star ingredients – the juicy apples, crisp celery, and the nutty goodness. These ingredients are the heart of our Waldorf Salad, providing a harmonious blend of textures.
-
Mayo Magic:
- Add the mayonnaise to the tossed ingredients, ensuring each piece is lovingly coated. The mayonnaise acts as the binding agent, bringing all the flavors together in a creamy embrace.
-
Nestle in Lettuce Cups:
- Spoon the tantalizing mixture into crisp lettuce cups. The cool, crispness of the lettuce provides the perfect vessel for the Waldorf wonder, enhancing each bite with a refreshing contrast.
-
Cherry on Top (literally!):
- If you’re feeling a bit extra, garnish your Waldorf Salad with vibrant maraschino cherries. This not only adds a pop of color but also a hint of sweetness, elevating the visual and gastronomic appeal.
-
Waldorf Salad Supreme:
- Feeling adventurous? Try the Supreme version! Decrease celery to 1 medium stalk and nuts to 1/4 cup. Stir in 1 can (8 1/4 ounces) pineapple chunks (drained), 1/2 cup miniature marshmallows, and 1/3 cup cut-up dates. This takes the classic Waldorf to a whole new level of indulgence!
