Ingredients
Fresh Ingredients
- 2-3 pieces Crisp apples (Honeycrisp preferred), chopped (Use firm apples to avoid mushiness.)
- 2 cups Seedless grapes, halved (Use a mix of red and green if desired.)
Dressing Ingredients
- 1 cup Vanilla Greek yogurt (Can substitute with plain yogurt and add honey.)
- 2-3 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup (Adjust sweetness to taste.)
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon (Add more if you love cinnamon.)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (Prevents browning and adds flavor.)
Optional Add-ins
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds or poppy seeds (For added texture.)
- 1/3 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (Optional for added crunch.)
Instructions
Preparation
- Wash and dry the grapes, then slice them in half.
- Chop the apples into bite-sized chunks, leaving the peel on for added color and texture.
- In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, honey, cinnamon, and lemon juice until smooth.
- Pour the dressing over the apples and grapes, then toss gently until everything is coated.
- Add nuts or seeds if using, and taste to adjust sweetness as needed.
- Chill for 20-30 minutes to enhance flavor before serving.
Notes
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. To keep apples from browning, use lemon juice efficiently.
