WALDORF SALAD Recipe – Vegan & Raw (serves 2)

Yummy Recipe for Raw Food Salad: Waldorf Salad

Ingredients:

• 2 apples (any style)
• 3 celery stalks
• 1/2 cup golden raisins, ideally soaked for 2-3 hours (can replace with dried cranberries as well)
• 2 cups fresh chopped pineapple or 2 cups green grapes (sliced into halves) or 4 kiwi fruit (peeled and chopped)
• 1 1/2 cup dried walnuts
• 1/4 cup fresh green onion (chives) finely chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh grated carrot

Dressing:

Blend together in a Blender or Mini-Food Processor:

• 3-4 walnuts
• 1 Tablespoon sweet mustard (or 1 tsp. dried mustard seeds)
• 2 Tablespoons organic raw apple cider vinegar
• 2 Tablespoons organic extra virgin olive oil (or less)
• 1 1/2 Tablespoons raw honey or 2 soft dates
• 1 teaspoon Himalayan salt
• A few Tablespoons of water – to get the consistency you want. (Alternatively you can add some pineapple and apple chunks into the blender)

A delicious raw food lunch!

Toss salad ingredients with your homemade dressing before serving.

This can be eaten as a healthy, filling breakfast or a nice tasty lunch. If you want to serve for dinner, you could serve the salad on a bed of romaine lettuce, just for good presentation.

Note: In this recipe, I don’t soak the walnuts. Their taste is better enjoyed when crunchy, not soft. Of course, you can always do what feels best for you! Enjoy!!
