Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups red seedless grapes
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, diced
- 0.5 cup red onion, finely diced
- 0.5 cup sunflower seeds
- 0.75 cup bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 0.75 cup mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash and pat dry the broccoli florets and red grapes. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized pieces and slice the grapes in half.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets, halved grapes, diced cheddar cheese, finely diced red onion, sunflower seeds, and crumbled bacon.
In a small mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the salad mixture in the large bowl. Carefully toss everything together until the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. This step is optional but recommended.
Before serving, give the salad a gentle toss to redistribute the dressing. Transfer to a serving dish if desired and enjoy!
