Ingredients

8 medium apples
1 cup celery (sliced)
1 cup grapes (sliced in half)
1 cup peanuts (or other chopped nuts)
½ cup mayonnaise (more or less - enough to coat apples)
2 Tbsp lemon juice (more or less to taste)
2 tsp white sugar
1 dash salt

Instructions:

Slice the apples, celery, and grapes into bite-sized pieces then combine them in a large mixing bowl.
Cover the sliced ingredients with water and add a couple Tbsp of lemon juice to keep the apples from turning brown. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the Mayonnaise, lemon juice, sugar, and salt. Adjust the amounts to taste. Cover and store in the fridge until serving time.
When close to serving time, drain well and add the nuts (chop them if they are large). Add the dressing and stir to combine.

Notes:

Make Ahead: It works really well to prepare this ahead of time - just don't add the dressing to the sliced ingredients - otherwise it will get runny. Just cover the sliced ingredients with water & a couple Tbsp of lemon juice and store the dressing, covered, in the fridge. Just before serving time, drain the water and combine the dressing and other ingredients.
