Broccoli Salad with Red Grapes, Bacon, and Sunflower Seeds

Ingredients

  • bacon (8 slices)
  • sunflower seed kernels (0.33 cup)
  • broccoli (1 large head)
  • red grapes (1 cup)
  • red onion (0.33 cup)
  • mayonnaise (1 cup)
  • apple cider vinegar (3 tablespoons)
  • white sugar (2 tablespoons)
  • ground black pepper (0 )

Instructions

  1. Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Crumble 7 slices of bacon; mix with sunflower seeds in a resealable plastic bag and set aside.
  2. Combine broccoli, grapes, and onion in a large bowl.
  3. Whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and pepper together in a separate bowl; crumble remaining slice of bacon and fold into dressing.
  4. Pour dressing over broccoli mixture; toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for flavors to blend, about 2 hours. Sprinkle bacon-sunflower seed mixture over salad before serving; mix well.
