Waldorf Salad
  
  A well made Waldorf Salad is a staple of the elegant buffets served on cruise liners. It may be served as a side dish or a light dessert. Since it is the season for picnics, brunches, and potluck barbecues: the time is perfect for a taste which always means vacation smiles.
Actual preparation time for this is about 5 minutes. The secret to its flavor is to chill it long enough for the Mayonnaise to take on the tastes of the ingredients.
Ingredients
4 large Red Apples, unpeeled and diced (about 2 cups)
1 rib Celery, minced (about 1/2 cup)
1/3 cup chopped Pecans, toasted
1/3 cup black Raisins
2/3 cup miniature Marshmallows
2/3 cup green seedless Grapes, cut in half
1 tin Mandarin Oranges, drained
1/2 cup Mayonnaise (Fat-Free will work)
Method
Mix all the ingredients together, and allow to chill for at least 4 hours.
Stir again, and serve.
Note: Do not omit the Marshmallows. The small amount of sweetness which the Mayonnaise will absorb from them is important to the finished product.
