It seems that zucchini jokes are as plentiful as the vegetable itself.
This one thanks to reader Tami Dean.
While we're on the subject of zucchini... I have a friend who gives
the following definition of a lonely person: someone who has to buy
zucchini at the grocery store.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::: TODAY'S RECIPE ::::::::::::::::::::::::::
This recipe seems particularly appropriate to our "Home Cooking" theme
this week because it is a favorite of my father, and it has been
served on special occasions in my parents' home for as long as I can
remember. The original was created in 1893 by Oscar Tschirky at the
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City. His creation consisted only
of apples, celery, and mayonnaise. The nuts were added later and have
since become considered a standard ingredient.
Waldorf Salad
1 cup (250 ml) diced red-skinned apples
1 cup (250 ml) diced celery
1/2 cup (125 ml) walnut or pecan meats
3/4 cup (180 ml) mayonnaise
Combine all ingredients and serve chilled. Serves 4 to 6.
