Broccoli Grape Salad

Submitted by Marsha D.

"I got this recipe from one of my close friends. She made this for one of our cookouts at Mineral Lake and everyone just fell in love with it. We all had to have the recipe and so I wanted to share it with everyone too. Noone would think that grapes would go with broccoli but it sure does. The dressing really sets off the salad. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do."

My mom and I made this for Thanksgiving and it was terrific. In the future, I would either cut back on the amount of red onion just a bit (or use a sweeter onion) as I find red onions to be rather strong and that was the taste that was most noticeable. I also used Splenda instead of sugar, which turned out fine. This is definitely a keeper!
