I love the fresh flavors of the herbs with the sweet grapes. It is so much better than the sour creamy salad that my family has made for years.

Ben on 2025-05-01 (5 stars): This is a go-to summer salad for my family parties. The flavors go so well together. Sometimes I will add both regular and golden grapes, sometimes some chopped walnuts, or even a blue or goat cheese if it won't be sitting outside. The recipe is fun, playful, something new and an easy 10/10 for us.
