Broccoli and indulgent aren’t words you find together too often. Even so, that’s precisely what this creamy broccoli salad is – indulgent.
It has such a rich taste and remarkably creamy sauce. Meanwhile, the bacon adds a touch of salty decadence, and the veggies are super crunchy. It’s easily one of the best broccoli side dishes you’ll ever eat.
Ingredients5 cups fresh chopped broccoli
1 pound bacon – cooked and crumbled
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons white wine
vinegar (or plain white vinegar)
1 red onion, chopped
1 cup sunflower seeds nuts
Method
- Fry some bacon strips over medium-high heat until brown.
- Chop into small bits, eat a few pieces, and set the rest aside.
- Chop the broccoli such that only the florets remain. Chop the florets further into bite-size.
- You can also use pre-chopped broccoli, although this costs more.
- Toss the broccoli, bacon, nuts, raisins, and onions in a bowl.
- To make the dressing, combine mayo, sugar, and vinegar.
- Pour it over the broccoli salad and toss.
- Either refrigerate it or serve right away!
