I couldn't ever find the perfect Waldorf salad recipe — one that didn't have too much mayonnaise but that still had enough of the original flavor to be called a Waldorf. So I mixed, matched, and experimented, and I finally came up with the perfect sweet twist on the classic version. Now I get requests for it at every family get-together!
