Step 1:

How do you make a celery and apple salad? Get the ingredients ready. You'll only need the celery stalks. Use a green, sweet-tart apple — Granny Smith, Semerenko, or Golden Delicious all work well. I also added a mix of salad greens; use that as you like. For the dressing, use plain yogurt with no add-ins. You can replace it with sour cream.
Step 2:

Cut the celery stalks off at the base. Rinse them well and then pat them dry. With a sharp knife, shave off the tough outer layer of fibers from the outside of the stalks. If the stalks are young and thin, this isn't necessary.
Step 3:

Cut the celery stalks crosswise into small pieces.
Step 4:

Wash the apple well, cut it into quarters, and remove the core and seeds. Cut the quarters into small slices. If the apple skin is very tough, cut it off. You can also cut the apple into strips or cubes.
Step 5:

Wash and peel the carrot well. Cut it into strips, or cubes, whichever you prefer. Or grate it on a regular or julienne (Korean-salad) grater.
Step 6:

Put the chopped celery, apple, and carrot in a salad bowl. Be sure to drizzle lemon juice over everything — it keeps the apple from browning and gives the salad a pleasant tang and aroma. Toss the salad. You can dress it with yogurt and serve.
Step 7:

I served the salad on a bed of mixed salad greens, with the yogurt dressing in a separate dish on the side. Enjoy!

I've shown the simplest version of celery and apple salad. If you like, you can add boiled or baked chicken fillet, walnuts, and vegetables and fruit to taste — cabbage (green or napa), cucumbers, any herbs, grapes, or pineapple. Instead of yogurt or sour cream, any vegetable oil and oil-based dressings work as well.
Root vegetables are best scrubbed with a brush or a stiff sponge under running water.
