Gruyere, walnut and grape salad
This salad is of French origin and combines a light and refreshing mixture of salad leaves and grapes together with a classic combination of strong cheese and walnuts. To make things easier, try to buy seedless grapes, and if you want, substitute the white grapes for black, or use a combination of the two. Watch out for the calories in the mayonnaise, especially if you are dieting.
