The ingredients for Salty Sweet Broccoli Salad are:

1 bunch of broccoli
1/2 medium red onion, diced
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup pecans, chopped
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup homemade mayonnaise
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Here is how you make Salty Sweet Broccoli Salad:

1. Cook and crumble the bacon. My preferred method is oven-frying: preheat to 350, bake the bacon in a single layer for 8-10 minutes. Keep an eye on it! 2. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, then peel and dice the stalks. Mix with the bacon, onion, raisins, pecans, and crumbled bacon. *NOTE: If raw broccoli is too much for your digestive system to handle ? you can blanch the broccoli to make it easier on your body. Bring a big pot of sea-salted water to a boil, drop in the broccoli stalks for about 3 minutes, then drain and rinse under cold water ?til they?re cool. Bingo! Friendlier broccoli. 3. Blend the mayo with the vinegar until smooth, pour over the broccoli, and mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste.Serving Size: Makes 4 servingsNumber of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user MISSSVJS.
