curry waldorf salad

bright, colorful, crunchy, & sweet, this curry waldorf salad will make you feel the same!  it is the recipe that convinced me i could eat a plant based diet and still thoroughly enjoy my food!  i was not convinced when i watched diana stobo, fellow vegan enthusiast, make it on youtube, until she tasted her own creation at the end and said, "Mmmmmmm" so convincingly!  i said, "fine...i'll try it"...my reaction was identical to hers, i was in a bit of ecstacy!...i loved it, i still love it, it's always a hit whenever i make it and wherever i take it! 

• 1 apple, cored and diced
• 1 celery stalk, diced...i use 2
• 4 red radishes, diced 
• 1⁄4 cup dried cranberries 
• 1⁄4 cup pecan pieces
• 2 dates or figs, no pit!  if you don't have dates or figs use a tablespoon of agave or maple syrup
• 2-4 tablespoons flaxseed oil...we use UDO's CHOICE and i use 1/4 cup
• 1-3 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice, i use 3
• 1⁄2 teaspoon curry powder...i use 1 full teaspoon, i love curry!
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

lemon and flax oil and curry have such strong flavors you have to blend the combination that suits you...whisk in a bowl if you are using a syrup to sweeten, mix in a blender if you are using dates or figs to sweeten...
