Peanut Apple Salad

    Peanut Apple Salad

    As promised, here's the Peanut Apple Salad recipe from my 1963 "It's easy to be a Gourmet...with SAUCY Peanuts ...and other fine Oklahoma Peanut Recipes!" recipe booklet. I made a half recipe and added a little more maraschino cherry. Remember to wash apple and celery before dicing. Double the ingredients to make the full recipe. This was easy to make. I am enjoying some for breakfast! 

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups diced apple (this came out to 1 1/2 apples for me)

1/2 cup diced celery

1/2 cups salted peanuts, rough chopped

10 maraschino cherries, chopped

1/4 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing

1 1/2 tbsp honey

1/2 tsp celery seed

Directions:

Combine apples, celery, peanuts and cherries in a medium sized bowl. In a small bowl mix mayonnaise/salad dressing, honey and celery. Pour dressing over the apple mixture and stir to thoroughly coat. Note that you can add the dressing ingredients individually stirring after each addition. Serve with or without lettuce cups.
