For an extra layer of flavor, try using toasted pecans instead of walnuts. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice can brighten the dressing and prevent the apple from browning. Serve the Waldorf Salad on a bed of crisp lettuce leaves or as a side dish to grilled chicken or pork. If you are using store-bought mayonnaise, consider adding a pinch of Dijon mustard to the dressing for added depth.
