Who doesn’t love a little sweetness with some bite and a whole lotta freshness? Nobody. That’s who. I love adding an unusual ingredient like grapes to a salad, and then savoring it while wondering, how have I never seen this ingredient in a salad before? They give such a pleasant burst of juicy flavor. And paired with the tanginess from the dressing and onion, it’s a combo made in heaven.
To be totally honest, I have been hesitating to share this because the photo just doesn’t do it justice. But the salad is SO GOOD. So I decided to share this now and then hopefully again when I have a better photo

Notes
Every time I make this someone comments about grapes in salad but then they taste it and they get it!
Yes! Changing minds, so fun!
This dressing is so, so good. It’s a treat itself!
Thank you so much, Elizabeth! It’s possible I MIGHT have licked the bowl on some occasions….
