"I've kept this recipe from my Grandmother. Apples, celery, dates and walnuts are dressed in a light fluffy marshmallow cream. It's very good and children seem to love it." — Linda

Directions

Place the apples in a medium serving bowl and sprinkle with sugar, lemon juice and salt. Stir in the celery, dates and walnuts. In a separate bowl, whip the cream with an electric mixer until it can hold a peak. Mix in mayonnaise and gently fold into the apple mixture along with the marshmallows. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Finally a Waldorf Salad that my mom used to make when I was a little girl, all I remember is that it taste so good and I loved it. Wanted to make it for my kids but could never find the recipe, and mom passed away. Thank you so very much for sharing this long awaited recipe.

I make this salad every Christmas.. always a hit.. only changes I make...I omit the dates and add dried cranberries for color.. and use cool whip instead of heavy cream for calories..

Made exactly as is but used stevia instead of sugar. Loved the crunch and the slight sweetness. I used my homemade mayo (whole egg Mayo here on AR)and to me it tastes so fresh doing that. I would def. consider using raisins, or cranberries if I didn't have dates. Even a touch of pineapple would be super.
