Broccoli Salad

So many versions of Broccoli Salad... Here's mine.


BROCCOLI SALAD

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sugar (or Splenda)
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
salt
pepper
1 bunch fresh broccoli florets, cut into bite-size pieces
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (or a handful of Hormel bacon pieces)
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup dry roasted sunflower kernels

Whisk together mayonnaise, sugar, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper. Set aside. Combine all other ingredients. Pour dressing over and toss to combine.

As you can see, I don't like too much mayo. The red wine vinegar thins it out a lot so a little can go along way and really cover the salad. Make it early so that it can refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving.
