I put grapes in when I'm cooking rabbit... but that doesn't help
you this time. Sorry. I have recipes for Grape Pie too... but
again, no help.

Maybe if you used a chutney recipe that called for raisins and
simply substitute the grapes? A Cranberry-Apple Chutney made
with grapes would probably be pretty good.

Cran-Apple Chutney

12 oz bag Cranberries
1 c sugar
1 c orange juice
1 apple, peeled & cubed
1/2 c raisins
Pinch of Cinnamon & Cloves

Place all ingredients in a large non-reactive saucepan (3 qt is
fine). Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat
to medium and
simmer 20 minutes, or until berries have burst.

Spoon into 4 half-pint or 2 pint jars. Cover and refrigerate for
up to 3 weeks.

This is great in lieu of jam or jelly on bread!

Does that help Mia?
