Our Favorite Broccoli Salad Recipe
Our favorite broccoli salad recipe is a mix of broccoli, bacon, cheddar cheese, walnuts, and golden raisins topped with a creamy and sweet mayonnaise yogurt dressing. It's the best easy and healthy summer BBQ side dish!
Ingredients
- 10 slices bacon
- 1 pounds broccoli
- 1 cup golden raisins
- 1-2 cups cheddar cheese
- 1 cup walnuts chopped
- 6 tablespoons rice wine vinegar garlic flavor (a little more than ⅓ cup)
- 1 cloves garlic or 2 if they're small
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 cup mayonnaise I wouldn't recommend Miracle Whip in this recipe.
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
Instructions
- Cook bacon over medium high heat. Drain it well and pat dry to remove as much of the grease as possible. Crumble the dried bacon and set it aside.
- Pour broccoli into a large mixing bowl. Add to it a large handful of golden raisins (my sister says that's a cup but I think it's more than that) and a large handful of walnuts. Add the crumbled bacon and two big handfuls of shredded cheddar cheese. Don't worry about mixing it up yet.
- In a small bowl, whisk together rice wine vinegar, garlic, sugar, and mayo. Pour the dressing over the broccoli and toss it well. Make sure it's all blended and well-coated.
- Refrigerate the salad for a couple of hours or overnight, to let the flavors blend.
