Creamy Grape Salad
If you have around 20 minutes to spend in the kitchen, Creamy Grape Salad might be a super gluten free and lacto ovo vegetarian recipe to try. For 57 cents per serving, you get a hor d'oeuvre that serves 24. One portion of this dish contains roughly 1g of protein, 6g of fat, and a total of 130 calories. Head to the store and pick up brown sugar, grapes, cream, and a few other things to make it today.
Instructions
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, sugar and vanilla until blended.
Add grapes and toss to coat.
Transfer to a serving bowl. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
Sprinkle with brown sugar and pecans just before serving.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner
Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner are my top picks for Salad. Sauvignon Blanc and Gruner Veltliner both have herby notes that complement salads with enough acid to match tart vinaigrettes, while a Chardonnay can be a good pick for creamy salad dressings. The Bergevin Lane Vineyards "Linen" Merlot Wine with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.

Bergevin Lane Vineyards "Linen" Merlot Wine
Graceful Marion berry and strawberry intermingle with light spice and cedar on the nose. Fresh blueberry, blackberry and hints of plum move towards cocoa on the palate. The structure is mouth filling with silky tannins holding it all together. The finish is where the cabernet sauvignon shows up, with blackberry, cassis and tobacco.
