Broccoli Salad www.daytodaydreams.com
   This is my famous Broccoli Salad, its crunchy, slightly sweet, fresh & delicious. I've seen versions with bacon or cheese, mine is a much simplier version with a clean taste.  (wow, don't I sound all gourmet)

 I cheat, I buy my broccoli already cut up at Costco, I trim all the stems & cut the pieces up even smaller, so they are perfect little fork sized morsels.

Broccoli ,Hellmann's mayonnaise, red onion, apple cider vinegar, sunflower seeds & raisins. I also add some sugar, forgot to add that to the picture, oops!

Broccoli Salad

serves 6-8 

6 cups of broccoli chopped up into bite sized pieces
1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
1/2 cup raisins
4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
4 tablespoons of sugar, splenda or other similiar substitute 
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise, full fat, 1/2 fat, whichever you prefer
1/2 cup of sunflower seeds, I've used salted & unsalted, use whatever suits you

I mix everthing together in a very large bowl (I like lots of mixing space) until the broccoli is thoroughly coated. Cover & refridgerate until serving at least 2 hours.

I like to make this up to 1 day ahead, all the flavours meld, the raisins get nice & plump.

Don't be afraid to add a little more of this, a little less of that, play with it a little, make it your own.

                        Bon Appetit
