A fruit salad has to be pretty darn good to actually get a name, and the venerable Waldorf salad is certainly worthy. Embellish this as you see fit, but I really like it best with just the four ingredients seen here. Things like dried cranberries can add a nice seasonal touch but, for me, the chewy fruit gets in the way of that addictive crunchy/crisp texture.
Ingredients
- 0.75 cups mayonnaise
- 0.25 cups creme fraiche
- ½ lemon , juiced
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped tarragon
- 0.5 teaspoons white sugar
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper
Instructions
-
1
Whisk mayonnaise, creme fraiche, lemon juice, tarragon, sugar, salt, black pepper, and cayenne together in a bowl.
-
2
Place apples, celery root, grapes, and walnut pieces in a large bowl. Toss with about 1/2 cup of dressing. Add more dressing until salad components are well coated but not swimming in dressing. You might not need all the dressing.

3
Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.

Taco Pizza
I was looking for a recipe for a taco pizza, but couldn't find exactly the kind I was wanting so I decide to wing it and came up with this one myself. The results were great. My husband said it was the best one he'd ever had! For an extra treat, top with lettuce, tomato and sour cream.
