My Most requested recipe: Souplantation style Broccoli Salad

This is probably my most requested recipe, so I thought I would just put it on my blog for all to enjoy!

Ingredients:

• 1 bunch broccoli, uncooked, washed; cut into florets (I buy the bag at Costco for like $3.99 & use about ½ the bag
• ½ cup cooked bacon, crumbled (I buy the pre-cooked bacon pieces at Costco or SAM’s Club, really good and REALLY easy) NOT BACON BITS
• ½ cup cashews (most expensive ingredient, I buy the container, GUESS WHERE? Costco)
• 1/3 cup raisins
• ¼ cup red/purple onion, chopped

Dressing

• 1 cup mayo                         
• 1/3 cup sugar             
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (rice vinegar or other kinds work OK too)

DIRECTIONS

Step 1: 

• Mix the broccoli, bacon, cashews, raisins and onions in large bowl.
• In a second bowl, beat dressing ingredients together gently until smooth.

Step 2:

• About 10 minutes before serving, toss the salad with the dressing to allow flavors to meld.

SERVE & ENJOY!
It is really super easy and super good.  Great for party appetizers!  Most people like it and it has some kind of veggies in it too, right!?
Side Note: You can also mix together and refrigerate overnight, just don’t mix salad and dressing until right before serving.
