Sweet Broccoli Salad

A big thanks to Jamie for this recipe!  We had it recently at a dinner party and this was a huge hit.  This broccoli salad is so light and refreshing and would make the perfect addition to your summer cookout.  We paired this tonight with some turkey burgers and they turned out great!  The sweetness of the grapes, the saltiness of the bacon and the crunchiness of the broccoli makes a delicious combination that I think you'll really love!  I modified the original recipe using light mayo, turkey bacon and Splenda to keep the calorie and fat count low.  Hope you enjoy it!
