The classic version of this sweet and savory salad was invented at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York in the 1890s and did not contain walnuts. We’ve updated it by substituting yogurt for some of the mayonnaise and adding citrus, dried fruits, nuts and curry powder.
Makes 6 servings, 3/4 cup each
ACTIVE TIME: 25 minutes

EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy
1/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt
3 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon salt

1 orange
2 tart-sweet red apples, diced (about 2 cups)
1 cup chopped celery
1/3 cup golden raisins

1. Whisk yogurt, mayonnaise, curry powder, salt and cayenne in a medium bowl. Grate 2 teaspoons zest from the orange and add to the dressing.
