The entire time I've known my husband, he's never like broccoli. Until about two months ago when he ordered steamed broccoli as a side at a restraunt. Since then, he says he likes broccoli and asked me to make this salad because he was 'craving' it. Ha! So, we made it together!
Broccoli Salad
Ingredients:
2 bunches broccoli
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
1 cup red onion, chopped
1 pack bacon, cooked and crumbled
3/4-1 cup mayo (or Miracle Whip)
2/3 cup sugar
4 tablespoons (or more) vinegar
Directions:
Combine broccoli, cheese, onion, and bacon in bowl.
Mix mayo, sugar and vinegar in seperate bowl. Pour over broccoli mixture. Combine well and serve.
Amy's Notes:
This is one of those recipes that I ask my mom to make when I go home to visit my parents. I don't know why I don't make it more myself because it's not hard to make, just a little labor intensive because of all the chopping involved. It's also a salad that everyone has their own recipe--some people add raisins or sunflower seeeds with various ingredients as the dressing. But this is what I grew up with so it's the variation that I like the most!
