About

We have to admit, when Mae first shared her idea for this salad, we had trouble believing it could work. Broccoli and grapes? Really? Yet, upon trying Mae's Broccoli & Grape Salad, we now have to admit we were wrong to be so hesitant... this salad is to die for! The garden-fresh broccoli provides a nice backdrop and support for the juicy grapes and the succulent bits of bacon mixed in! Almonds and celery add a refreshing crunch, and the creamy and tangy dressing just heightens the whole thing. Credit where credit is due, Mae's Broccoli & Grape Salad changed our minds on what a great salad could be, and it will change yours too!
