This is much better than the traditional Waldorf salad! I doubled the recipe and used 2 containers of Greek yogurt, one honey and one vanilla then didn't add the honey. Delicious, thank you!

This recipe was exceptionally good. I used vanilla yogurt instead of plain and lemon peal instead of orange rind. It worked very well.

This is delicious! I made only one change--I used non-fat yogurt which reduced the calories even further (to about 88 per serving) and almost all the fat (just the trace fat in the fruit). It makes a lovely bowl of salad and the dressing is so rich tasting that one doesn't realize how healthy this dish really is.
