Equipment

Ingredients
 

  • 6 cups Broccoli florets
  • 8 slices Bacon, cooked and diced
  • 1½ cups Shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ Red onion, diced
  • ⅔ cup Mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • ¼ cup Red wine vinegar
  • ⅛ cup White sugar
  • 1 teaspoon All Purpose Seasoning Blend

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, and All Purpose Seasoning Blend in a small bowl.
  • Combine the broccoli, bacon, cheddar cheese, and onion in a large bowl.
  • Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and stir until thoroughly combined.
  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight, before serving.

Christina's Notes

  • Cut Broccoli Into Small Florets: Smaller pieces soak up more dressing and are easier to eat in one bite.
  • Whisk the Dressing Well: A fully combined dressing coats the salad evenly instead of pooling at the bottom.
  • Chill Before Serving: At least 1 hour lets the broccoli soften slightly and the flavors meld together.
  • Keep It Refrigerated: This salad contains mayo and dairy, so store it in the fridge for up to 5 days.
