Wonderful Waldorf Salad

Waldorf Salad.. Funny name. Kinda sounds like a character from the Harry Potter series!

I did a little research to find the origins of the name...

Waldorf salad [WAWL-dorf] Created at New York's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in 1896 not by a chef but by the maître d'hôtel, (dining room manager) Oscar Tschirky, the Waldorf salad was an instant success.

The original version of this salad contained only apples, celery and mayonnaise. Chopped walnuts later became an integral part of the dish. Waldorf salad is usually served on top of a bed of lettuce.

Anyway... This yummy salad can be created quite simply with some help from our friend Mr. Salad-Bar
