Grape Walnut Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Combine grapes, celery and cheese in large bowl. Add dressing; toss to coat.
• Toss spinach and romaine with onions; spoon onto 4 plates. Top with grape mixture and nuts.

Steps:

• Place grapes in a large bowl. Stir in the walnuts. Pour the blue cheese dressing over the grape mixture and stir until everything is evenly coated. Chill until ready to serve.

Steps:

• For best results, use a mixer to mix cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla extract, and sugar. You can mix by hand, too, but it won't be as smooth.
• Fold grapes into creamy mixture.
• In medium saucepan, melt butter. Add walnuts to lightly brown to taste.
• Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar. Sprinkle topping over grapes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the walnuts on a baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted, 5 to 7 minutes. Let cool, then coarsely chop.
• Make the dressing: Whisk the vinegar, mustard, sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until well blended, then whisk in the sour cream.
• Add the cabbage, cilantro, dill, tarragon, scallions, grapes and toasted walnuts to the bowl; toss to coat with the dressing. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 4 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Place red wine vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, salt, and garlic cloves in a blender and pulse on high speed.
• Add the shallots and slowly incorporate the extra-virgin olive oil while blender is on high speed.
• Finish seasoning with black pepper.
• Allow the dressing to sit for 24 hours, refrigerated, before using.
• Place spinach, grapes, feta, and walnuts in salad bowl.
• Cover with dressing and toss.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Once heated, place walnuts on a sheet pan and cook until toasted and fragrant, about 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer nuts to a cutting board to cool. (You'll use the sheet pan in the next step.)
• Cut the fennel bulbs in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 1-inch wedges (you'll have about 6), taking care to include a bit of core in each slice to hold it together while cooking. Arrange the slices on the sheet pan, ensuring they do not overlap. Add the grapes to a corner of the sheet pan. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over the fennel and grapes. Season with ¼ teaspoon kosher salt and ⅛ teaspoon pepper. Roast for 40 minutes, flipping the fennel and shaking the grapes around at the 20-minute mark. When done, the fennel should be tender and browned; the grapes should be a bit withered and caramelized in some spots. Remove from oven and let cool for at least 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the cooled walnuts, and set aside while you prepare the dressing: In a small glass jar, combine the shallot, sherry vinegar, orange zest and juice, mustard, salt, black pepper and olive oil. Cover and shake well to combine. Set aside.
• Assemble the salad: Transfer the roasted fennel and grapes to a platter. Spoon 4 tablespoons of the dressing over the roasted fennel and grapes, ensuring the shallot rings are evenly distributed. (Extra dressing can be served alongside.) Top with chopped nuts. Just before serving, grate the Manchego cheese on the largest hole of a box grater. Top salad with Manchego, reserved fennel fronds and a few more cracks of black pepper. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes for 12-15 mins until tender, then drain and leave to cool a little. Cut the potatoes into thick slices. Mix together the yogurt, mustard and lime zest. Toss the potatoes with 4 tbsp of the dressing and 3 tbsp of the onion.
• Put the turkey in a medium bowl and toss with the oil, then cook in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat for 10 mins, turning at least once until the turkey is cooked through.
• When you're ready to serve, mix half the lettuce, watercress, half of the remaining onion and 1 of the peppers in a bowl. Top with half the potatoes, and slice and pile on half the turkey. Toss the avocado with a good squeeze of lime, then scatter half on top with half the grapes and half the walnuts. Spoon over half of the remaining dressing.
• If packing this into lunchboxes, do the same with the remaining ingredients in the lunchboxes, but in reverse, so the green salad is at the top. Keep the dressing in a pot separately, to drizzle over just before eating. Will keep chilled for two days.
