The South Arm Cooking Club for Seniors met up again at the South Arm Community Centre for the last time as the community kitchen will be moved to another location for 2 months while South Arm kitchen under goes renovation. We cant wait to see what’s install.
The first dish is a simple Apple Celery Salad. This salad is cinnamony and crunchy. A good start to whip up the appetite.
Celery has low calorie and rich in dietary fibre. Hence, it’s often used in weight loss diets.

Yogurt Dressing
- 1 cup low fat plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey

Salad

Instructions
 Combine the ingredients for the yogurt dressing in a large bowl and mix well. The recipe makes about 1 cup. |
 Wash the apples. Remove core and chop apples into small chunks, leave the peel on. |
 Toss chopped apples immediately into dressing to prevent the apples from browning. |
 Add chopped celeries and walnuts. Stir to coat well with dressing. Refrigerate the salad until ready to serve.
Place lettuce leaf on each plate and spoon apple mixture onto each leaf to serve. Served chilled. |
Hi, Suanne:
Thanks for this simple, fresh looking recipe. The yogurt dressings looks very easy to make. Looks like a tasty and healthy treat.
