{Death by Broccoli}
and a pleasant and happy one it would be, too! This is inspired by a recipe of one of my aunts! She used to bring something really similar to this to family gatherings - I've basically switched up the proportions. Even as a child, when raw broccoli wasn't my thing, I loved this salad. Now that I'm grown and am happy to munch my veg regardless, this is still a fabulous treat! We love it especially for bbq's to go alongside potato salad and a grilled burger. Mmmm...
2 heads of broccoli
6 oz. of cheddar cheese, grated
9 oz. of bacon, cooked and crumbled{ I bake mine in the oven - WAY less hassle and mess. And if you're wondering how it turns out - you already know! it's the only way it's cooked in restaurants. ;-)}
3/4 c. onion, finely chopped
Toss everything together is a dish that'll be easy to stir everything around in.
the sauce:
2 c. mayonnaise
1/2 c. sugar
4 T. white vinegar
Mix together and pour over the above ingredients.
Toss everything together and serve! It's great for a couple of days, too, so if you need to make it ahead, it's perfect. ^_^
