# Expert tips:

01 -
  • The sweet and creamy combo hits different when you are tired of regular lunch meat sandwiches
  • You can prep everything ahead and assemble in under two minutes on busy days
02 -
  • The flavors actually get better after sitting in the fridge for a few hours so do not be afraid to make it ahead
  • Halving the grapes instead of leaving them whole makes them easier to bite into in every mouthful
