Best Broccoli Salad Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup light mayonnaise
⅓ cup sugar
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp celery seed
2 heads of broccoli broken down into small florets
¾ lb bacon, cooked and chopped into small pieces
½ cup toasted slivered almonds
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup chopped celery
1½ cups red seedless grapes, halved

Instructions


  • Whisk together mayonnaise, sugar, red wine vinegar, and celery seed in a small bowl. Place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Combine broccoli, bacon, toasted almonds, green onions, celery and grapes in a large serving dish.
  • (To toast almonds, place on a large baking sheet and bake at 350F for 3-5 minutes stirring in between. Do not walk away! They will burn easily. The almonds are toasted when they turn light brown.)
  • Toss the dressing with the rest of the salad ingredients and stir.
  • Dressing can be added at the last minute if desired.
