Waldorf Breakfast Salad



Waldorf salad was originally created at the Waldorf hotel in the late 1800's.  It is traditionally made with mayonnaise, but the greek yogurt is a tasty and healthier substitution.  As I have experimented, I've found that this salad is just as good with a simple citrus dressing.  I love serving this "makeover" waldorf salad to my family for breakfast with a green smoothie or breakfast muffin.
