Broccoli Salad

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Salad

Ingredients

  • 8-10 cups of fresh broccoli cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1/2 red onion, cut into thin bite sized slices
  • 1/2 pound bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 3/4 cup raisins or craisins (see Note)
  • 3/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • salt and pepper

Directions

  1. Combine broccoli with the red onion, bacon, raisins, and almonds in a large bowl.

  2. To prepare the dressing, mix the mayonnaise, sugar and vinegar together until smooth. Stir into the salad.

  3. Let salad chill for about 3 hours. It may not seem like enough dressing but after it chills the dressing marinates and is plenty. This also allows the flavors to meld.

  4. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
