Ingredients:
4 cups broccoli florets, cut small
3 tablespoons red onion, diced
½ cup red seedless grapes, sliced in half
3 tablespoons sliced almonds
3 slices turkey bacon, cooked crispy and crumbled
½ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1½ tablespoons honey
1/8 teaspoon celery seed
Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation:
- Make the dressing: combine the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, celery seed, salt and pepper. Whisk together. If too thick for a dressing, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until desired consistency is reached. It should be a creamier dressing. Adjust sweetness and seasoning as needed.
- Toss the broccoli, red onion and grapes together. Pour dressing over top and mix well. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving if possible.
- When ready to serve, top with almonds and bacon. Stir to combine.
