Alpha Gal Friendly Grape and Apple Salad with Honey-Ginger Dressing
This fruit salad is a bright, refreshing bowl of color that feels as good as it looks. Sweet red and green grapes pair beautifully with crisp apple slices, and the honey-ginger dressing ties everything together with a warm, zippy kick. Ceylon cinnamon adds a delicate, almost floral spice that sets this apart from your average fruit toss, while fresh mint lifts the whole thing with a cool herbal finish. For anyone navigating alpha-gal syndrome, this recipe is a natural fit — every single ingredient is plant-based or derived from plants and bees, with zero mammalian products to worry about. No label-scanning, no substitutions needed; it's just clean, whole ingredients doing exactly what they should. Toss it together in minutes and serve it right away for maximum crunch, or let it chill briefly so the dressing soaks into every slice.
