Chicken Waldorf Salad With Flaxseed-Oil Dressing image

Flaxseed oil is high in heart-healthy omega-3 fats. Better yet, its rich, nutty taste brings out the sweet, tart flavor of the apples and cranberries in this twist on a traditional Waldorf salad with Flaxseed-Oil Dressing.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less apples and grapes. The dressing was also a bit too oily for my liking.
