Ingredients

6 servings

For the dressing

1 cup raw cashews, soaked in cold water for at least 30 minutes, then drained
3 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
3–4 tbsp water, as needed to thin

For the salad

3 cups red seedless grapes, halved
3 cups green seedless grapes, halved

For the topping

½ cup pecans, roughly chopped
Chef's tip
Use the same amount, keeping the same form - whole, chopped, or toasted.
2 tbsp brown sugar

Instructions

1
Place the drained cashews, maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt in a blender. Add 3 tbsp water and blend on high until completely smooth and creamy, about 1–2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed. Add the remaining 1 tbsp water if the dressing is too thick to pour — it should be the consistency of a thick but pourable cream.
2
Combine the halved red and green grapes in a large mixing bowl. Pour the cashew cream dressing over the grapes and fold gently until every grape is evenly coated.
