Broccoli Salad with Bacon

Adapted from https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/280464/broccoli-salad-with-bacon/

Servings: 8

INGREDIENTS

1 pound bacon
1 bunch broccoli, finely chopped
½ cup sunflower seeds
½ cup diced red onion
¾ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons white vinegar

STEPS

1) Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and let cool enough to handle, 5 to 10 minutes. Crumble.

2) Combine crumbled bacon with broccoli, sunflower seeds, and red onion in a large bowl.

3) Mix mayonnaise, sugar, and vinegar together in a separate bowl. Pour over broccoli mixture and mix together. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before serving.


NOTES

Chop broccoli fairly fine. I like to include a bit of the stalk for extra crunch.
