Sandy’s broccoli cauliflower salad with red grapes
A yummy salad with tangy yogurt dressing offset by sweet red grapes. From former neighbor, Sandy Shelton.
Ingredients
Salad:
1/2 pound bacon, cut up and fried
1/2 head each: cauliflower and broccoli, cut into small florets
Up to 3 cups seedless red grapes, halved
1 small red onion, diced fine
Up to 1 cup chopped pecans
1 small English cucumber, diced (you may not need all)
Cheddar cheese, shredded
Dressing:
If your cauliflower and broccoli are real large, double dressing — it’s good on slaw, too.
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or couple sprigs, fresh
Salt and pepper
Instructions
