Ingredients
- 2 cups Red seedless grapes
- 2 cups Green seedless grapes
- 1 cup Sliced almonds
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain)
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the sliced almonds for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently until they turn golden brown and release a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Step 2
Wash and pat dry the red and green grapes. Cut them in half if desired, or leave them whole for a chunkier texture.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Add the grapes to the creamy dressing and gently fold until the grapes are evenly coated.
Step 5
Sprinkle the toasted almonds on top of the salad. Reserve a small amount of almonds for garnish if you like.
Step 6
Transfer the salad to a serving bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Step 7
Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves and the reserved toasted almonds if desired.
