Apple, Celery, and Walnut Salad

This crisp apple, celery and walnut salad is a sophisticated take on a classic Waldorf-style dish. Combining the sharp sweetness of Fuji apples with the earthy crunch of toasted walnuts and chewy golden raisins, it offers a wonderful contrast of textures and flavours. The light dressing, made from a blend of low-fat soured cream and reduced-calorie mayonnaise, provides a creamy finish without being overly heavy, making it a refreshing choice for any season.

As a versatile vegetarian dish, this salad is ideal for a light lunch or as a bright accompaniment to a Sunday roast. It is particularly well-suited for meal prep, as it stays crisp when stored correctly in the fridge. Packed with fibre and heart-healthy fats, it is a nutritious option for those seeking a balance of sweetness and savoury crunch in their midday meal.
