BROCCOLI SALAD WITH GRAPES
This broccoli salad with grapes is a perfect salad for a hot summer day. The first time I tried it was at my aunt's 30-acre ranch outside of Dallas. The grapes and the bacon add an unexpected, but flavorful, twist. Add chopped cooked chicken to make this an entree.

BROCCOLI, GRAPE, PASTA, BACON SALAD
A wonderful summer meal, sweet and sour pasta, with the tastey undertones of bacon. This is from Southern Living Sept 2011. When I first saw it, I did not think it was going to be a good combination, but I made it because it seemed kid-friendly; but now *I'm* converted! I'm listing the ingredients the way they listed them, but honestly, half the sugar is perfectly yummy. Also, I did not find it necessary to chill the salad, so if you're running short on time, go ahead and eat it room temp! I also hid some boiled egg in this salad for extra protein for my kids--I just minced up the whites and blended the yolks into the mayonnaise mixture. They LOVED it! Lastly, the reviews for this on myrecipes.com gets 5 stars with 42 reviews, so it's worth a try!

Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp broccoli: The fresher the broccoli, the better the salad will be. Look for broccoli florets that are deep green and tightly closed.
- Blanch the broccoli briefly: Blanching the broccoli helps to preserve its color and crunch. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately remove the broccoli from the boiling water and plunge it into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Use a variety of toppings: This salad is a great way to use up leftover ingredients. Some popular toppings include grapes, bacon, almonds, and cheese. You can also add your favorite vinaigrette or dressing.
- Make it ahead of time: This salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This makes it a great option for potlucks or picnics.
Conclusion:
Broccoli salad is a delicious and versatile side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With its fresh, crisp broccoli, sweet grapes, salty bacon, and creamy dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
