Broccoli Cashew Salad

Directions

Ingredients :

1 pound bacon

1 cup mayonnaise

2 teaspoons cider vinegar

½ cup white sugar

2 pounds fresh broccoli

broken into florets

½ cup raisins

1 cup roasted cashews

¼ red onion

finely chopped

Methods :

Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Cool bacon and crumble into pieces.

Whisk together the mayonnaise, cider vinegar, and sugar in a mixing bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Add the broccoli, raisins, cashews, onion, and crumbled bacon. Stir until evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 2 hours. Let stand at room temperature 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
