This is the recipe for Broccoli Salad that I begged for after eating it at a covered-dish dinner:
Broccoli Salad
"Confirmed broccoli haters have changed their minds after tasting this salad. It is great for potlucks or buffet meals. Make a day or so before you wish to serve to meld the ingredients. I have used sugar substitutes for the white sugar and also used nonfat or low-fat mayonnaise and it still tastes great!"
10 slices Bacon
1 head fresh Broccoli, cut into bite-size pieces
1/4 cup Red Onion, chopped
1/2 cup Red Grapes, halved
3 tablespoons Rice Vinegar
2 tablespoons Sugar
1 cup Mayonnaise
1-1/3 cups toasted Slivered Almonds
- Cook bacon in microwave. Drain, crumble and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the broccoli, onion and grapes. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, sugar and mayonnaise. Pour over broccoli mixture, and toss until well mixed. Refrigerate for at least two hours.
- Before serving, toss salad with crumbled bacon and almonds.
