Chicken Salad Chick Grape

 Chicken Salad Chick's Grape Salad is a delightful and refreshing dish that combines the sweetness of grapes with the creaminess of a dressing. Here's a simple recipe inspired by Chicken Salad Chick's Grape Salad:

Ingredients:

For the Salad:

• 4 cups seedless red grapes, halved
• 4 cups seedless green grapes, halved
• 1 cup chopped pecans, toasted
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the Dressing:

• 1 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Grapes:

   • Wash and dry the grapes thoroughly. Cut them in half and place them in a large mixing bowl.

2. Toast the Pecans:

   • In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the chopped pecans until they become fragrant and lightly browned. Stir frequently to prevent burning. Once toasted, set aside to cool.

3. Make the Dressing:

   • In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.

4. Combine Ingredients:

   • Pour the dressing over the halved grapes in the mixing bowl. Gently toss the grapes to coat them evenly with the dressing.

5. Add Pecans and Cheese:

   • Sprinkle the toasted pecans and shredded cheddar cheese over the dressed grapes.

6. Mix Thoroughly:

   • Gently fold the ingredients together until the grapes are well-coated with the dressing, and the pecans and cheese are evenly distributed.

7. Chill Before Serving:

   • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the grape salad for at least 1-2 hours before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the salad to chill.

8. Serve:

   • Before serving, give the salad a final gentle toss. You can garnish with additional pecans or cheese if desired.
