CURRY BROCCOLI SALAD
The best broccoli sadad I've had! I have cheated and used precooked bacon crumbles. Works just as well. Also I have replaced about 1/2 of the mayo with yogurt. This recipe is so good.

- If you don't have cashews on hand, you can substitute another type of nut, such as almonds or walnuts.
- To make the salad ahead of time, simply prepare the broccoli, bacon, and dressing and store them separately in the refrigerator. When you're ready to serve, combine the ingredients and toss to coat.
- This salad is also delicious served warm. To warm the salad, simply microwave it for 1-2 minutes, or until heated through.
