Amish Broccoli Salad
This Amish broccoli salad is made with fresh broccoli and cauliflower mixed with shredded cheddar and crispy bits of bacon. It's all dressed with a sweet, tangy, creamy dressing. We like to make this in the summer and serve it with just about anything off the grill.

Cup of Yum
Notes
- With ¼ cup of sugar, this does have a bit of sweetness to it, but it’s not as sweet as many Amish salads are, due to our personal preference. You can increase the sugar up to ¾ of a cup if you like things sweeter.
- Add in some diced red onion if you like a bit of bite in your salads.
