Grape Salad
Grape Salad is a simple, no-bake fruit salad starring fresh grapes tossed in a luscious creamy dressing—perfect for potlucks, barbecues, or an easy weeknight treat.
Ingredients
- 4 cups seedless red grapes about 1 lb
- 4 cups seedless green grapes about 1 lb
- 1 cup whole milk Greek yogurt for extra creaminess; can swap for low-fat
- 4 oz cream cheese softened (Neufchâtel works, too)
- 1/4 cup sour cream (or plain yogurt)
- 3 Tbsp honey (or pure maple syrup)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract (Nielsen-Massey is my go-to)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional, adds warmth)
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (toasted lightly; omit if nut-free)
- Pinch salt (balances the sweetness)
Instructions
- Place red and green grapes in a large bowl; keep halves uniform so every bite feels balanced.
- In a separate bowl, mix cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla, sour cream, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
- Pour the dressing over the grapes and fold gently to coat evenly.
- Sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts on top and chill the salad for at least 45 minutes.
- Stir the salad lightly before serving. Optionally, drizzle honey or garnish with fresh mint.
Notes
Select firm, plump grapes for best results. Excess water can dilute the dressing, so ensure grapes are dry. Leave cream cheese at room temperature for easier blending.
