Grape Salad


I'm so excited to share this recipe with you. Don't be fooled by the title, this is definitely not healthy. But it is SO yummy. Our neighbors had us over for a barbeque last weekend and Jeanelle served this as a side/dessert. One of their family favorites, and it immediately became one of ours! EASY and so good and hey at least it has fruit in it! You and yours will love it and beg for you to make it again.

GRAPE SALAD

Ingredients:
2 lbs. green seedless grapes
2 lbs. red seedless grapes
8 oz. sour cream
8 oz. softened cream cheese
1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Topping:
1 c. brown sugar, packed
1 c. crushed pecans

1. Wash and stem grapes; set aside.
2. Mix sour cream, cream cheese, white sugar and vanilla by hand.
3. Stir grapes into mixture and pour into large serving bowl.
4. Combine brown sugar and pecans and sprinkle over top.
5. Chill overnight (or at least a few hours).

- This makes a lot so unless you're making it for a pretty large group or want lots of leftovers, halve this.
- Jeanelle used light/low fat sour cream and cream cheese and it tasted great.
- You can obviously eat it without chilling but it's just better that way.
