Grapes with Goat Cheese and Pecans

Beautiful as 
an Appetizer 
or to pack 
in your lunch!









  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 8 ounces goat cheese
  • 1 pound red or green grapes
  • 8 ounces chopped pecans
  • Parsley to garnish

Using an electric mixer, add cream cheese and goat cheese. Mix until smooth.

Wash and dry grapes. Take a tablespoon size pinch of the cheese and roll it around each grape to coat. Roll in the pecans and refrigerate.  Slice in half just before you are ready to serve or in the morning if you are packing a lunch.

Notes:
  1. Freezer approved! We tested these to see if we could freeze them. We froze them whole (not in half) & they froze and thawed very nicely! Highly recommend.
  2. We purchased large red globe grapes with seeds.  The seeds were easy to remove with a knife.

* Recipe adapted from "A Decade of Cooking the Costco Way" Divine Flavor, page 33.  Recipe calls for green grapes and walnuts.
