Steps:
- 1. The broccoli yield about 5 cups when cut into bite size pieces. Pour into a large bowl.
- 2. These are some of the main ingredients used for the salad.
- 3. Cut onion into quarters then eights, and process in a food processor into small pieces. The onions takes on the flavor of the smoked bacon. They marry well together.
- 4. Now add the chopped bacon and onion mixture to the bowl of broccoli flowerettes. Add in the sunflower seeds as well.
- 5. Stir to mix together.
- 6. Add the mayonnaise, sugar or splenda and apple cider vinegar to a medium size bowl and whisk or beat together till blended.
- 7. Mixture should be creamy and smooth. I added the raisins also to the salad dressing and allowed them to absorb the flavor and moisture of the dressing for about 10 minutes.
- 8. Now pour salad dressing mixture over the broccoli and stir to blend together. If time permits allow to sit and flavors marry before serving. About 1/2 hour to 45 minutes.
- 9. Stir just before serving. Then serve and enjoy.
