EASY RECIPE : GRAPE SALAD WITH CHOCOLATE YOGURT DRESSING

If you love fresh grapes, milk chocolates, nuts and Greek yogurt then you have to savor this delightful salad creation!

Red, Black and Green Grapes are for sale year-round at the supermarkets. With the arrival of New Year’s Eve, I knew that one of the fruits we will have were these trio-colored grapes.

Twelve to Thirteen round fruits are prepared at the dining table as one of the Philippine New Year’s Eve traditions. With the abundance of fruits, I was eyeing on making Creamy Grape Salad with the three colors.

Unfortunately, by the time I was scouring the supermarket, only two colors were left – red and black. So my dreams of making a Creamy Grape Salad has to be set aside. I still had red and black grapes though, so I opted to make something I never tried - Grape Salad with Chocolate Yogurt Dressing.

I wanted to use yogurt as dressing, remember I initially wanted a creamy version. I also have some nuts – almond shavings and macadamia that I haven’t touched for a while, so I wanted to add those. Since I am adding some nuts, chocolates must be present.

If you love grapes, chocolates, nuts and yogurt then stick around as we savor this delightful salad creation!
