Spicy Grape Waldorf Salad
This colorful salad is delightful as an accompaniment to a full-course meal or served at a lovely luncheon tea. Spoon into crisp leaves of Romaine and garnish with mint and whole grapes for a pretty presentation.
1 1/2 cup each red flame, green, and purple grapes, cut in half
3 cups Fuji apples, wedged and sliced
1 cup walnuts, chopped into large pieces
3 stalks of celery, finely diced
Dressing:
1 package silken tofu, soft
1 Tbsp. lemon juice, fresh
2 Tbsp. maple syrup or brown rice syrup
1/4 cup pepper jelly
1/16 tsp. cayenne pepper or to taste*
Prepare fruit and place in a large, glass bowl. In a blender, mix the dressing ingredients and blend until very smooth. Mix the dressing with the sliced fruit. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
*May substitute curry powder for a different flavor while retaining the spiciness of the dish.
