Quick Bacon Broccoli Salad image

I've made this many times as a hurry-up side dish. When trying to figure out which region this recipe represented, I finally closed my eyes & picked one. Italian? Well, the word broccoli does come from the Italian "brocco" meaning arm branch so it kind of fits. Enjoy!

Categories     Pork

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 -10 slices lean bacon (to lower fat use turkey bacon)
20 ounces fresh broccoli florets or 20 ounces frozen broccoli florets

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in microwave until crisp. (I've used pre-cooked & packaged bacon in a pinch).

  • In a large bowl, toss drained broccoli, carrot & onion.
  • In a glass bowl or measuring cup, combine vinegar, sugar & oil. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes then pour over vegetable mixture. Toss to coat.
