What to do with grapes?

I really am a fruitaholic lately...but no matter how hard I try, I canNOT eat through a bag of grapes before they go bad. I'm the only one in the house that'll eat them, but I wonder if I cook/bake with them if they would get eaten sooner. :]

Any ideas?

    You could freeze them and use them in a shake of some sort!

    I'm the only one that eats them here. But I eat 30 of them a day. That is two fruits for me on the plan I'm doing. If you can't eat then freeze them. At our stores here you can buy the larger bag or get a smaller bag and put the amount of grapes in that you want.

    My friend gave me a recipe for a grape sorbet ...

    You can also put them in your shakes, freeze them for later, make home made grape jam/jelly, or make pie with them! Yum!

    I add 5 red globe grapes with half a ya pear to 4% cottage cheese 1/4 cup hazelnut pieces and 1/8 teaspoon Saigon cinnamon. Its a side dish I eat with 3 eggs in the morning as well as with beef and veggies for lunch.

    Frozen grapes make for excellent protein smoothies as well.

    feed them to chickens, who will turn them into food for you.

    you could make a chicken salad with red grapes, walnuts or pecans, chopped boiled chicken, chopped celery, and light mayo/greek yogurt.

    Buy lowfat vanilla yogurt and dip the grapes in them and put them on a cookie sheet, and pop in the freezer. Once they are frozen you could throw them in a plastic freezer bag and they are DELICIOUS!!!

    I love, love love, love frozen grapes. If you leave them out for just a bit they taste like popsicles. MMMMM!!

    I freeze them as well - make sure to spread them out in a single layer first, so they don't stick together.

    I also keep them in the fridge, it helps them last longer.

    Try and get smaller bags too, if you can.
