Apple, Celery, and Walnut Salad

Fuji Apples add great color. For a zesty flavor, substitute low-fat plain yogurt for the sour cream.
2 Fuji apples, diced (1/4 inch)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 ribs celery, diced (1/4 inch)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/3 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup reduced-calorie mayonnaise
1/4 cup low-fat sour cream
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

Toss the apples with the lemon juice in a bowl. Add celery, walnuts, and raisins, then toss. Combine the mayo and sour cream in another bowl, then fold into the apple mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pack in tightly covered, small plastic containers.

I haven't tried this one, but clipped it (from Parade Magazine) and wanted to put it somewhere where I wouldn't lose it. How about the Radically Cookish site?! Yes, but not quite yet. I put it in my jeans pocket. That night when I undressed, I realized I hadn't copied it down yet, so I put the jeans away with all the random notes and coupons and lists in the pockets. The recipe was safely filed there for a couple of days. You do that too, right? Then today, when I put on the jeans, there was the recipe, nice and safe and ready to be transcribed. Meticulous filing practices we follow in the this household.
