This is a chicken salad that can be served for lunch , or as an appetizer salad. It is light fresh and very tasty to eat.

Ingredients:
2 cups cubed or shredded cooked chicken breast
2 cups chopped cored Red Delicious apples
1 cup sliced celery
1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts
1 cup mayonnaise
2 heads of romaine lettuce


You will wash the lettuce and core the apples into 1/2 inch, you will leave the skin on the apples. Add the mayo to the bowl, and add your apples. Cut the celery into small dice ans chop the walnuts and add both to the mayp and mix well. If you would like to make this a vegetarian dish then increase the apples by half, and omit the chicken. Add the lettuce to your serving dish, and then add your waldorf salad on top of the bed of cleaned lettuce. If you want to serve as an appetizer add a scoop of the waldorf salad onto lettuce cups. You can garnish with some chopped nuts, or some julienned apple skin. Serve or refrigerate and hold for time of service.
