Broccoli Grape Salad Lightened Up

Ingredients

for the dressing

  • 3/4 cup mayo (I use Duke’s; Mom always loved Hellman’s)
  • 1/4 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • pinch of salt

for the salad

  • 1 cup broccoli florets, chopped
  • 1 cup green and red grapes, cut in halves or quarters
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds
  • 3 strips turkey bacon, fried crisp and crumbled
  • 1 green onion, very thinly sliced

Instructions

Prepare the dressing

  • Whisk all of the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl, and set aside.

Prepare the salad

  • Toss the broccoli, grapes, celery, almonds, and crumbled turkey bacon together in a medium bowl. Fold in the dressing until the salad is coated (you might not use all of it; if not, save it, too). For the best flavor, refrigerate the salad for a minimum of 6 hours or overnight. (Refrigerate the green onions, too.) Before serving, toss to recoat the salad (add the extra dressing, if you had any and if it needs it), and sprinkle the green onions over the top.
