Ingredients
- 1 pound broccoli florets cut bite size
- ⅓ cup red onion cut in strips
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ pound Bacon cooked and crumbled
- ½ cup raisins
- ⅓ cup sunflower seeds no shells
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- In a pot of boiling water, drop broccoli and cook for about 1 minute. Remove immediately and rinse with cold water. Place in a large bowl.
- Add onion, cheese, bacon, raisins, and sunflower seeds to broccoli.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the mayo, vinegar and sugar. Pour over salad right before serving.
Notes
- If you add the dressing ahead of time, it “softens” the veggies and gets a bit absorbed into the crevices of the broccoli florets. I love it this way!
- For a crunchier broccoli salad, toss the salad with the dressing right before you’re ready to eat. It’s delicious no matter what.
- Chill. For best results I love keeping this chilled for at least an hour before serving.
- Lighten it up. Use half the amount of sugar, or substitute it with stevia. You can also use a low fat mayo or an olive oil mayo! Skipping the bacon is also an option, although I never do that, haha!
