Classic Broccoli Salad Recipe

I’m just going to come right out and say it…

I’m obsessed with Broccoli Salad. No shame.

I love the sweet and tangy dressing that gets soaked into the crunchy broccoli, the toasted cashews, the plump craisins, and of course… the bacon.

MY OTHER RECIPES

Broccoli Salad is a staple at any BBQ or Potluck type meal, so be prepared this summer with this classic recipe that is a definite crowd pleaser.

You know a recipe is going to be a winner when it starts with bacon.

A rule of thumb when cooking any recipe with bacon is to always, always, ALWAYS add an extra slice or two of bacon. You know darn well that you (or your hungry husband) will have to steal one of those smoky/crispy strips before it goes into the recipe.

It’s written somewhere I’m sure.

The rest is a snap to throw together. I toasted up some cashews, but you can switch it up with some walnuts or sun flower seeds too.

The dressing is a simple 3 ingredient blend: Mayo, white wine vinegar, and sugar.

Easy peasy.

Would you look at me weird if I told you that I ate some of this for breakfast this morning?

Um, yeah… it’s that good.

Plus, yeah… I am that weird. Hi.
