Yield: Makes 6 to 8 servings
Total time: 3 Hours, 30 Minutes
Ingredients
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 (16-oz.) package pasta of choice (I used rotini)
1 pound fresh broccoli
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup diced red onion
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups seedless red grapes, halved
8 cooked bacon slices, crumbled
Directions
Place pecans on baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350° oven 5 to 7 minutes or until lightly toasted and fragrant, stirring halfway through. Set aside to cool.
Prepare pasta according to package directions.
While pasta is cooking, cut broccoli florets from stems, separating florets into small pieces.
In a large bowl add mayonnaise, sugar, red wine vinegar, onion, and salt, whisking to combine. Add broccoli, hot cooked pasta, and grapes, and stir to coat. Cover and chill 3 hours. Stir bacon and pecans into salad just before serving.
