Grape Salad Recipe
This Grape Salad Recipe is a no-bake, crowd-pleasing dish that blends crisp grapes, creamy Greek yogurt, and a sweet, crunchy topping—ready in 15 minutes flat.
Ingredients
- 4 cups seedless red and green grapes rinsed and patted dry
- 4 oz cream cheese softened (Philadelphia works beautifully)
- 1 cup whole milk Greek yogurt (Fage or Chobani)
- 1/2 cup sour cream (light or regular)
- 2 tbsp honey or pure maple syrup (for natural sweetness)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (toasted for extra crunch)
- 2 tbsp light brown sugar (packed)
- Zest of 1/2 lemon (optional, for a bright pop)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the rinsed grapes and pat completely dry—extra moisture dilutes flavor.
- Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then add yogurt, sour cream, honey, and vanilla. Stir gently until silky—use a spatula or a hand mixer on low.
- Pour half the whipped mixture over grapes; gently toss until every grape gets coated.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to let flavors mingle.
- In a small bowl, stir together nuts, brown sugar, and lemon zest. For richer flavor, toast nuts in a dry skillet until lightly golden.
- Spoon the grape mixture into a serving dish, sprinkle the topping evenly, and enjoy right away—or chill another 10 minutes for an extra-crisp bite.
