Ingredients
Salad
- 8 slices of bacon
- ⅓ cup sunflower seeds (optional)
- 1 large head of broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
- 1 cup of seedless grapes, green or purple - sliced
- ⅓ cup diced red onion
Dressing
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tbls apple cider vinegar
- 2 Tbls white sugar
- Ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned and crisp
- Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels; Crumble 7 slices of bacon, mix with the sunflower seeds inside a plastic bag and set aside
- Chop the broccoli into bite size pieces
- Combine the broccoli, sliced grapes, and onion in a large bowl
- Whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and pepper together in a bowl; crumble slices of bacon and fold into the dressing mixture
- Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow flavors to “marry”.
- Just before serving, sprinkle the remaining bacon and sunflower seeds over the top of the broccoli salad and serve cold (I actually add the bacon and sunflower seeds before I add the dressing and let it all "marry" together for at least an hour in the refrigerator
