Ingredients

3 Fuji apples (medium-sized, washed, cored, and diced)
2 Granny Smith apples (medium-sized, washed, cored, and diced)
2 teaspoons lemon juice (real lemon juice, not bottled)
1¾ cups miniature marshmallows
1½ cups celery (diced)
1 cup walnuts (roughly chopped)
½ cup mayonnaise
⅓ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Instructions

Add the diced Fuji and Granny Smith apples to a large salad bowl, then pour the lemon juice over them and stir until all the pieces are evenly coated.
Add the miniature marshmallows, diced celery, and chopped walnuts to the apples, then stir until everything is well combined.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, and granulated sugar until the sugar is fully incorporated and starts to dissolve.
Spoon the dressing over the apple mixture and stir until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Serve immediately.

Notes

You can swap the walnuts for any chopped nuts you prefer, including candied walnuts or pecans.
You can make this salad the night before, but since the dressing contains dairy, be sure to keep it refrigerated.
You can mix in seedless grapes, dried craisins, or chopped dried apricots for extra flavor and texture.
