Broccoli Salad- A Favorite Summer Salad
Broccoli Salad- A Favorite Summer Salad
As someone who has hated broccoli all of my life, it is funny that I am posting a Broccoli Salad recipe. That's because, this salad changed how I feel about Broccoli. It is delicious and super easy to make. This salad is a family favorite and great pot luck dish for large groups.
Step 1
Cook the bacon until it is crisp.
Step 2
Grab a head of Broccoli in the produce department- Rise and cut apart. I usually use the kitchen scissors for this because it is much easier than using a knife. I like to cut it into small bite size pieces.
Step 3
Chop some green onions
Step 4
Toast the Sliced almonds-watch them carefully so they won't burn
Step 5
Mix the dressing
In a mixing cup add:
1 1/2 cup Hellman's Mayonnaise
3 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 Cup sugar
Step 6
Put all the ingredients in a large bowl-don't forget the raisins!
Step 7
Pour the dressing over the ingredients and mix!
Step 8
Serve chilled and ENJOY!!!!!!!
Here's the full recipe for this delicious salad.
Broccoli Salad
2 Heads of fresh broccoli (Uncooked)
2 oz package of sliced almonds-toasted
1/2 cup raisins (I like to use the Golden Raisins)
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 lb cooked bacon, chopped
To toast the almonds, Heat oven to 250. Spread the almonds onto a cookie sheet and toast slightly 3-5 minutes. Watch them carefully-they burn quickly. Cool before adding to salad. (They can also be toasted in a toaster oven)
Place the above items in a large bowl and mix.
Pour the dressing below over the top and stir
Mix together in a bowl
1 1/2 Cups Hellman's Mayonnaise (1 16 oz jar)
3 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
1/4 Cup Sugar
Whip dressing until smooth and pour over items in the bowl. Serve chilled.
