Preparation
In a large bowl, stir together cream, sour cream, yogurt, and lemon juice. Stir in celery, 3/4 cup (180 mL) of the walnuts and apples. Gently fold in berries. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
In a bowl or on a serving platter, arrange lettuce leaves and gently spoon salad on top. Garnish with remaining walnuts and celery leaves.
Tips
For tender and sweeter celery, peel the back part of the celery rib with a vegetable peeler; this really changes the flavour and nature of celery!
Celery leaves can be found in the heart of the celery.
