Lettuce Salad with Grapes

"Kopfsalat mit Weintrauben"

Lettuce salad with grapes is a delicious change from the traditional tossed salad recipes. Adding cheese boosts the protein and makes it even better!

Lettuce salad recipes are easy to prepare and add that healthy touch to a lunch or supper meal. This one includes grapes and apples to make it a real healthy treat.

Since grapes are widely grown in southern Germany (for wine), they are readily available in late fall. This salad is a great example of finding different ways to use them.

If you'd like a more traditional lettuce salad with a tart, creamy salad dressing with a hint of dill, try Lettuce Salad with Sour Cream Salad Dressing. A treat as well.

Whenever you make a lettuce salad, make sure that you wash the lettuce thoroughly. Then dry it. Use a salad spinner or gently pat the leaves dry with paper towels. Water that sticks to the leaves will prevent an oil-based dressing from adhering or will turn a cream dressing watery.

  • 1 small bunch chives, chopped
