Broccoli Salad

This was my Grandma Edna's recipe for broccoli salad. It is a midwestern classic that has been handed down by many families for generations.

Salad:

• 3 bunches of broccoli
• ¼ cup sliced purple onion
• 1 lb. bacon, fried and crumbled
• ½ cup yellow raisins
• ½ cup sunflower seeds

Dressing:

½ cup mayonnaise (less for a lower fat version)

¼ cup sugar

2 T. cider vinegar

Combine dressing ingredients. 

Cut broccoli into small florets.  Combine with remaining ingredients. 

Refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.
