Light, yet with the indulgent touch of mango, this is delicious as a starter or for a light main. The first Waldorf Salad was created in New York City in 1893, by Oscar Tschirky, the maître d’hôtel of the Waldorf Astoria, and featured diced red-skinned apples, celery and mayonnaise.

Salad is a very nice, healthy meal. I’d make this again.
A lovely light meal for the days when it is too hot to be in the kitchen & the hot stove.
