Chunks of turkey or chicken add a variety to this wonderful broccoli salad. Try with crisp red grapes and a bit of diced red onion. Instead of mayonnaise, use a creamy style salad dressing done up with vinegar and sugar.
INGREDIENTS (for 7 servings):
- 1 head fresh broccoli, chopped
- 2 cups seedless grapes
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 12 slices turkey bacon
- 1 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
PREPARATION:
Place turkey bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
Prepare dressing by whisking together the sugar, salad dressing or mayonnaise and vinegar. Pour over broccoli, grapes, onion, turkey bacon and sunflower seeds. Toss until well coated, refrigerate until chilled and serve.
