Turkey Waldorf Salad is a twist on the classic Waldorf. It’s filled with leftover turkey, apples, pecans, cranberries, and a honey mayo sour cream dressing.
When it comes to planning a holiday party, our family tends to have bigger eyes than stomachs, and you? I don’t know how we do it every year, but together with my parents we produce twice as much food as we need!
Of course, the benefit of going overboard is days of light cooking duties because of all the leftovers.
The salad comes together quickly with a sweet and tangy honey mayo sour cream dressing.
