Equipment

  • Chopping board.
  • Paring knife.
  • Bowl.
  • Spoon.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small to medium green apple, Granny Smiths
  • 1 celery stick
  • ½ cup (80g) red grapes
  • ¼ cup (30g) walnut pieces
  • Pinch of salt

for the Waldorf salad dressing

  • 2 tablespoons plain vegan yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh mint and parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon water, optional

To serve (optional)

  • handful of cos or romaine lettuce
  • lemon wedges

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the dressing. Finely chop the herbs and add them to a bowl with a pinch of salt and vegan yogurt. Stir together until smooth, creamy and combined. If the dressing looks a little thick, you can thin it with a tablespoon of water.
  • Chop the remaining ingredients. Dice the apple into small 1 cm pieces and discard the core. Slice the celery thinly, about 2mm thick, into little half-moons. Half the red grapes. Break up any larger walnut pieces so they're all nice and small.
  • Toss the salad. Place the celery, fruit and walnuts into a bowl, then pour in the Waldorf salad dressing. Gently toss it together with a spoon until everything is evenly coated with dressing. Do a taste test and add more salt or a squeeze of lemon juice if needed.
  • Serve with lemon wedges and green salad leaves (optional).

Notes

  • Serves 2-3 as a side salad or light lunch when served with leafy greens.
