Waldorf Salad

Recipe #42456 | 30 min | 30 min prep | add private note

By: Mary Leverington
Oct 7, 2002

This is the original Waldorf Salad recipe which I clipped out of the newspaper several years ago. My mother made this salad often--it must have been a favorite of hers also. Newer versions have left out some of the ingredients which add variety in texture and taste. It's a classic American salad which was developed by the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City.

    This was a very good and refreshing salad. Next time, I will only make 1/2 the dressing - it was too much for me. Thanks for posting!

    Excellent! Very similar to what my mother made when I was a child, with the exception of the bananas & cream. We called it "5 cup salad".
