Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for flavors to blend, about 2 hours.Sprinkle bacon-sunflower seed mixture over salad before serving; mix well.We never substitute the red grapes with raisins and we always use apple cider vinegar for this recipe. However, we sometimes substitute the sunflower seeds with chopped pecans or toasted sliced almonds.Add the crumbled bacon and sunflower seeds when it's time to serve. If you hold off and wait, the bacon and sunflower seeds stay nice and crunchy therefore enhancing the overall texture and flavor. Mix well once added.Info | Misty Grapes Red Wine Alcohol Contentprep:
