Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 cups red seedless grapes
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 6 pieces bacon slices
- 0.5 cups sunflower seeds
- 0.75 cups mayonnaise
- 0.25 cups Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1.5 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Begin by cooking the bacon. Place the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat and cook until crispy, about 5–7 minutes. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
While the bacon cooks, prepare the vegetables. Cut the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces, rinse them under cool water, and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Slice the grapes in half and finely dice half a medium red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings if desired.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets, halved grapes, diced onion, sunflower seeds, and crumbled bacon.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the large bowl. Toss everything gently but thoroughly until evenly coated.
Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the salad chilled as a refreshing side dish or a light lunch. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
