Grape Salad - August 26, 2012

 My husband's grandma made these one summer and my husband came home raving about them so I had to get the recipe to make him happy.

Grape Salad

Ingredients:
1 lb seedless red grapes
1 lb seedless green grapes
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
8 oz sour cream
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup pecans (or walnuts) chopped

Directions:
Combine cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla, and brown sugar until creamy. Add *washed & dried* grapes and nuts and stir until everything is well coated. Let chill for at least an hour. Serve chilled and store in fridge.







Husband Rating:
Like I said before, he loves these. I think a lot of it has to do with his grandma making them, but that's ok. :) I made them for a potluck of sorts and they were a big hit. I really like the crunchiness of the nuts, so I like to use more. Play around. You can use walnuts or pecans or change it up and use whatever you'd like. Toss in other fruit favorites too.
