Broccoli salad recipe

 

When was younger I worked across the parking lot from a hospital.  Frequently I'd head to their cafe where I'd purchase some broccoli salad for lunch.  This salad is so easy and is perfect for a summer potluck.  It would also be a great side along some grilled chicken. 

Broccoli Salad

  • 1 bunch raw broccoli, chopped (don't use the main stem part)
  • 1/2 c. raisins
  • 1/4 c. sesame seeds
  • 10 slices bacon, fried and crumbled or you could use 1 bottle of prepared real bacon bits (can be found near the salad dressings at the grocery store)
  • 3/4 c. onion, diced
  • 1 c. mayonnaise
  • 2 TBSP. vinegar
  • 1/2 c. sugar

Mix together the broccoli, raisins, sesame seeds, bacon, and onion in a large bowl.  In a small bowl mix mayonnaise, vinegar, and sugar for the dressing.  Add the dressing to the broccoli mixture and stir gently to coat.  Refrigerate until ready to serve.
