Broccoli Salad

My dear friend Sandy gave me this recipe several years ago. People always seem to enjoy it when I make it. Roger and I really enjoy it. I especially love how easy it is to make!

2-3 bunches broccoli, chopped into small pieces
1 c raisins
1 lb bacon, fried crisp (I can only find 12 oz pkg. of bacon)
red onion, chopped
1/2 c sunflower seeds

Dressing:
1 c mayonnaise (I use low fat)
1/3 c sugar (I usually use 2 pkg. of splenda instead of the sugar)
2 T+ vinegar (can use any kind)
Mix well, pour over salad and toss well.

  1. Hey there lady, How are you? I love this recipe so much and really I think I could sit and just eat it with a fork. I like your version as it has less mayo than mine does.
    I need to make it again.
    Thanks for posting.

  2. Oh thank you so much for posting Kim. I have been wanting to do this for such a long time. I think this is be a work in progress for a long time! I don't really have a theme in mind, just whatever comes up I guess. Since your blog is the first one I ever read, it means so much to me that you were my first commentor (is that a word?) Thanks again so much for taking the time.
