Best Broccoli Grape Pasta Bacon Salad Recipes
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!

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.
