Anna loves this salad. Look on my blog she's eating it!
2 bunches fresh broccoli (about 1 pound) cut into bite-size pieces
1 medium purple onion, finely chopped (optional, I don't add it because I don't like onion)
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
6 strips bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1/2 cup sunflower seeds OR cashews
1/2 cup Craisins
In a large bowl combine broccoli, onion, and cheese. Refrigerate. Just before serving, stir in bacon, nuts, and craisins. Add cold dressing and serve right away.
Dressing:
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/4 - 1/2 cup sugar (however sweet you like it)
1/2 teaspoon salt
Mix well and chill at least one hour before tossing with salad. I don't ever chill this dressing for an hour before serving. I never think that far ahead! I just make it first and put it in the fridge, then I do the rest of the salad, get dinner ready, then put the dressing on the broccoli and serve. It's still Yum-o.
