Are you familiar with this salad? It tastes 'grape'! Aunt Erma gave us this recipe several years ago and we have enjoyed the dish many times. It's always popular to carry-in to a potluck or group meal and it feeds a lot of people. Easy to prepare, it's a refreshing salad that is perfect for summer. Right now grapes are so sweet and tasty. Maybe you'd like to try this for your Labor Day weekend.
Here is an individual serving.
