Grape Salad

Over the past weekend, Todd & I went to a cookout so I made two side dishes to bring, taco dip and grape salad. The grape salad recipe is from Todd's family and he has made it once before for us. Like most of my recipes, it's simple and easy to make and the perfect side dish in the summer.
