    Default Broccoli Salad

    Made this for the first time today and it is delish!

    2 heads of broccoli, cut into bite size pieces
    2 1/3 cups of raisins
    1/2 of a small red onion
    1/2 a small pkg of slivered almonds
    10 pieces of bacon crispy fried and crumbled

    Combine the above and add dressing

    1 Cup of mayo
    1/2 Cup sugar
    2 TBSP Vinegar

    Chill for several hours.

    My mother was making this each week, as she loved it so. She added a chopped up apple to it, along with the raisins. It was very good that way too!

    I make a similar recipe. No bacon, cashews instead of almonds, and I add curry powder to the Mayo. Love this recipe!!

    No you do not cook the broccoli you marinate the salad in the dressing, the broccoli gets a little soft that way.
