For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the dressing. Toasting the almonds enhances their nutty flavor and adds a delightful crunch. If you prefer a lighter dressing, substitute half of the mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt. This salad is best served within a few hours of being dressed to prevent the broccoli from becoming too soggy.

Nov 10, 2024I was skeptical about the grapes and raisins, but they really make the salad! The bacon adds the perfect salty crunch.
