    Goat Cheese & Walnut Covered Grapes! Juicy grapes are enveloped in a creamy goat cheese spread and rolled in crunchy walnuts in this delicious, simple appetizer!

    I've got some big changes coming up for The Kitchen Prep this summer that I can't wait to share.

    Some of them I have to keep under wraps for a bit, but I can start by sharing something small. {Otherwise, I may just explode from the anticipation.} For example, the fact that you can now reach the blog by simply typing www.thekitchenprepblog.com into your browser.

    A tiny thing, I know, but this thing is seriously my baby and that itsy bitsy little change is comparable to it's first step. It's enough to send a girl twirling around screeching, "Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!" all Liesl-style. {Please tell me you remember this part from The Sound of Music. I have now scoured Google for a clip of that scene with absolutely no luck... and am utterly disturbed at some of the things that pull up that are completely unrelated to this. }

    Anyway, food.

    So, if you are as fabulous as I think you are, you will no doubt be invited to lots of summer cookouts and fancy soirees {or, you know, just backyard get togethers} over the next few months. And most likely, you will either be asked to bring a dish or will volunteer {even though you barely have time to shower, let alone whip up something fabulous} because you are a polite party-attendee.

    If you are like me {and I hope for your sake you are not}, you will probably rack your brain for an original, delicious crowd pleaser that doesn't have you slaving away in the kitchen all day and arriving at said party looking like a disgruntled mess.

    Well, guess what? I think I found the solution.

    Look at these adorable little things! It's like a baby cheeseball swallowed a grape.

    I'm a little bit in love with them. And you will be, too. Four ingredients. Semi-healthy. Kinda fancy. So yum.

    Tell me you don't want to get invited somewhere right now just so you can take these.

    Yeah, that's what I thought.

    Prep Time 30 minutes mins

    Course Appetizer
    Cuisine American
    Servings 30 servings

    Ingredients
      

    • 3 ounces cream cheese softened
    • 3 ounces goat cheese room temperature
    • 1 bunch grapes
    • 1 cup chopped walnuts

    Instructions
     

    • In a small bowl, combine cream cheese & goat cheese. A hand mixer can make this easier if the mixture is too stiff.
    • Place a small dollop of the cream cheese mixture in the center of a piece of plastic wrap, spreading it out a bit. Place a grape in the center of the mixture and fold the plastic wrap up around it to fully envelop the grape. Remove plastic wrap.
    • Roll the coated grape in walnuts to fully coat.
    • Place on a plate or in a container and refrigerate until set.
    • When ready to serve, pierce with toothpicks or decorative skewers.

        Thanks! I love that they are sort of impressive looking for a 4 ingredient, no-cook appetizer. A winner in my book! 🙂

      Great recipe, and fabulous write up! I am going to try to do something similar for Thanksgiving appetizers. I always dread when people ask me to do potluck because cooking is not really my forte... This sort of recipe is my only hope! Thanks. 🙂

Join me in my South Florida kitchen and let's get cooking!
