Melissa's Modifications
Lighten up the Waldorf Salad by using yogurt to decrease fat and calories. Add a little sweetener to offset the tart yogurt. Monk fruit sweetener is my sweetener of choice as it provides a 1 to 1 conversion with zero calories and is diabetic safe.
Other modifications for added protein: add 4-6 oz. of grilled chicken, turkey or albacore wild tuna packed in water.
