Grape Salad

As I stated before, in the cooking camp post over on the family blog.....this is not a healthy low-fat salad thingamabob. But it certainly does taste terrific!!! :)

• 1 package red seedless grapes
• 1 package green seedless grapes
• 1 block cream cheese ( I do use the 1/3 less fat if it makes you feel better)
• 1 tsp. vanilla flavoring
• 1 small can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup (more or less) pecans, chopped

So...you wash and dry your grapes, pick them off, and put them in a large bowl. Next, we use our mixer, but you can do this by hand. Put the cream cheese, vanilla flavoring and sweetened condensed milk into a mixing bowl and combine until well blended. If doing it by hand, I suggest allowing the cream cheese to get to room temperature so that it will be easier to mix.

Once you have a luciously creamy mixture...fold in those grapes with a spatula, and mix them around so they can all get covered in goo.

Now, add in the chopped pecans and stir together thoroughly. Next, pour all this mixture over the grapes and stir gently to coat. We like to put ours in the fridge to chill for a couple hours before serving. This is a great side dish and dessert all in one!!! :)
