Steak Waldorf Salad ~Many classic Waldorf ingredients are seen in this salad, but a few new entries make it bold and interesting. The horseradish in this dish provides a tangy “bite,” but the dried fruit brings it back in balance with a sweet touch. The yogurt and mayo dressing is quite healthy. I used the mayo with olive oil. The walnuts help give the salad added substance. I used a nice spring mix of greens but spinach is an alternative you may enjoy.
