Waldorf Salad

8 cups chopped apples, mix of green and red, with skins on

3 cups chopped celery

2 cups chopped walnuts

2 cups raisins (optional)

2 cups mayonnaise or creamy salad dressing

2 Tbsp lemon juice

In large bowl, mix apples, celery, walnuts, and raisins if desired.  In separate bowl, mix mayonnaise and lemon juice.  Coat apple mixture with dressing.  Chill overnight.

Tips and Thoughts:

This is a super easy salad that packs tons of nutrition in each serving.  Choose apples that are firm and crisp.  I like Braeburn, Granny Smith, and Honeycrisp for flavor and texture.

Even Jonathan, who eats next to nothing, will eat the apples and walnuts in this.
