I can remember this first time I had a Waldorf Salad. It was years ago at the historic Davenport Hotel in Spokane, Washington. We always stopped for lunch on our way to Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho. Once a year isn’t enough for this treat so I knew I had to find a recipe. It’s one of my favorite salads year round and it’s one my kids will actually eat! I also will add chicken if I’m preparing for a lunch or prepare as a side salad without the chicken. It’s great either way.

  • 1 bag of Hearts of romaine lettuce
  • 1/2 cup of red grapes sliced in half
  • 1-2 Pears sliced
  • 1/4 cup of Craisins
  • Crumbled Gorgonzola or Blue Cheese
