Best Broccoli Salad
The sweet sour combination from the vinegar and sugar makes this creamy broccoli salad at the top of my favorite cold sides.
- Total Time: 4 hours
- Yield: 8 1x
Ingredients
Head of Fresh Broccoli
1/4 cup shelled sunflower seeds
1 16 ounce package of bacon. (thin works best to ensure crispness but it’s up to you)
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons white vinegar
Instructions
Cook the bacon until crispy
Chop and allow the bacon to cool
Chop the broccoli into manageable bite sizes
Mix the Mayonnaise, sugar, and vinegar until incorporated
In a bowl large enough to not make a mess, mix the broccoli, bacon, and mayonnaise mixture until everything is coated
Add the sunflower seeds, and refrigerate about 4 hours before service to allow the sugar to fully dissolve.
Notes

You can get crazy with this salad by adding ingredients of your own.
