Berry Waldorf Salad

Published May 28, 2015

Colorful and creamy, a salad of fruits and vegetables sits on a pink and white dish.

For a dish that's “berry” good for your health, try this Berry Waldorf Salad. 

Strawberries and blueberries are an excellent source of phytochemicals that help protect against a slew of health conditions, among them high cholesterol, heart disease, type 2 diabetes and memory loss.

Like berries, apples have been shown to help lower the risk of obesity, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. 

Nuts, with their high levels of heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, reduce the risk of stroke, while Greek yogurt supplies calcium, protein, potassium and gut-friendly probiotics.

Enjoy this crunchy salad on its own for a refreshing midday pick-me-up, or pair it with a piece of Spinach Frittata for a light, nutritious meal any time of day.

Directions

STEP 1

In a large bowl, combine apple, strawberries, blueberries, walnuts, celery and raisins.

STEP 2

In a small bowl, whisk together yogurt, honey, lemon juice and cinnamon. Pour into apple mixture and stir gently to coat. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
