Creamy Grape Salad Recipe
Grape salad is sweet (thanks to the brown sugar), creamy (with all that cream cheese), crunchy (topped with sugared pecans), and just a little tangy (from the sour cream). It’s such a delicious mix of flavors and textures! This salad is one that everyone is sure to love, even the kids. It’s super refreshing in the summer, and looks beautiful on the table on holidays. This is a great recipe to try if you have a lot of grapes you need to use up!

What kind of grapes should I use?
Be sure to get seedless grapes for this salad. I like using a mix of red and green grapes, both for the color (it looks extra pretty) and for a mix of sweet and tart. However, you can use whatever grapes you prefer or have on hand. You can certainly use all one type or color of grape as well.
Can I use yogurt to make this instead?
Yes, plain Greek yogurt would work as a great substitute for the sour cream here. You’ll get that same light, creamy, tangy flavor. You could also use yogurt instead of cream cheese, but it will give you a different flavor and consistency. It would certainly taste delicious though if you want an even sweeter grape salad.
How should I serve this creamy grape salad?
This dish is surprisingly versatile! It works as a salad before the meal, a fruity side dish, and even tastes indulgent enough to serve as a light dessert. I love serving this grape salad on holidays (it’s a great Christmas or Easter dish), or as a summer side dish with burgers. It’s also a hit at brunch along with sweet breads and eggs! Everyone will love the flavor of this creamy grape salad. It’s such an easy recipe and it’s undeniably delicious!
