Ish's Grape Broccoli Salad

So, you might be wondering who in the world Ish is!  Well, that is my mother-in-love.  She is this wonderful woman who loves me like I'm her own daughter.  She made this recipe a couple of years ago and I had to have it.  It's delicious!!  Oh, her name is really Genny (Genevie), but without giving you the long story, my boys call her Ish!  You are going to love her salad, I promise!  It's always a crowd pleaser!

Enjoy!

ISH'S GRAPE BROCCOLI SALAD

3 cups chopped broccoli tops
2 cups chopped cauliflower
1-2 cups chopped celery
1/2 cup red onion (optional)
2 cups red grapes, cut in half
2 cups green grapes, cut in half
1 pound bacon, cooked and crumbled

Dressing:

1 cup real mayo
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vinegar

1)  Mix all ingredients (except bacon) in a large bowl.

2)  Pour dressing over and mix well.

3)  Add bacon just before serving.

NOTES:

~This is a huge recipe, but it can be cut down or increased, depending on the size of the crowd you are feeding!

~It's also a very flexible recipe.  If you don't like celery, leave it out!  If you love nuts, throw some in.  You can play with it and make it your own!
