Easy Waldorf Salad Recipe:
Every few weeks, I ask my hubby to stop by Sam’s Club to pick up a few items that we use in bulk. I always ask him to grab us a couple of their rotisserie chickens as well. We use the first one in a couple of meals and I’ll de-bone the 2nd one and freeze the meat in meal size portions to use later.
I have so many different recipes to use the chicken, though one of my favorite ways is in chicken salad. This easy Waldorf Salad is soo good! It’s stuffed full of grapes, apples and walnuts and the kids go crazy for it.
On this particular day, my daughter had fallen asleep during the late afternoon. Of course, she woke up super grumpy! I tried to snap her out of the grumps by having her help me with dinner, which she loves.
There really wasn’t much for her to do. The only thing I was doing was chopping the fruits and veggies.
I’ve let my 9 yr old handle a small knife with supervision, but never my baby! (She’s 7) It was torture to hand her the tiniest little pairing knife I had and let her chop a few apples and grapes. I tried to stay quiet after showing her how to hold the fruit and handle the knife, but I was sweating bullets with each little slice. (Yes, I fully admit to being just little overprotective…)
She did great and was very proud of herself! Now I just need to teach the kids how to load the dishwasher properly and we’ll be all set!
