Description
A delightful medley of crisp apples, crunchy celery, sweet grapes, and toasted walnuts enveloped in a creamy dressing.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup diced Granny Smith apples
- 1 cup diced Gala apples
- 3/4 cup finely diced celery
- 1/2 cup halved green seedless grapes
- 1/2 cup halved red seedless grapes
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Instructions
- Dressing: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with a handheld mixer at high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the mayonnaise and set aside.
- Salad: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, celery, grapes, and walnuts. Sprinkle with lemon juice and granulated sugar, stirring to coat everything evenly.
- Combine: Gently fold in the mayonnaise mixture until everything is well combined. Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve: Just before serving, garnish with reserved halved grapes to add an extra touch of freshness and color.
Notes
To elevate the flavor profile, consider adding a few pinches of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dressing. For a healthier option, substitute Greek yogurt for mayonnaise.
