From Herbal Companion. A good use for the vanilla vinegar. It will fly with no fat yogurt mixed with some no fat mayo in place of the mayo Ingredients:
4 stalks celery |
2 large apples |
1/4 cup currants or 1/4 cup dried cherries or 1/4 cup cranberries |
1/2 cup toasted coarsely chopped pecans or 1/2 cup walnuts or 1/2 cup almonds |
2/3 cup mayonnaise |
salt |
1 1/2 teaspoons maple syrup or 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar |
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla vinegar |
Directions:
1. Note: use 1 to 2 tsp maple syrup or sugar and 2 to 3 tsp vinegar to taste.
2. Scrub celery and slice. Scrub apples, remove core and seeds and slice. Toss celery and apple together in a bowl. Add currants and nuts and toss.
3. In a separate small bowl, combine mayo, salt, syrup or sugar and vanilla vinegar and blend well.
4. Toss dressing with celery and apple until coated and taste for seasoning; adjust with a little more mayo, sugar or vinegar.
5. It should be tangy with a hint of sweetness.
6. Let stand for 10 or 15 minutes before serving or refrigerate until almost ready to serve and then allow the salad to come to cool room temperature before serving.
