Yum! I will definately make this again. I needed a vegetable for camping this weekend and picked this because it looked like I could do most of the work ahead. I mixed the dressing ahead, and brought it in a small Ziplock container. Then I put the broccoli and green onion in a gallon sized zip bag, along with a store-bought bag of precooked bacon crumbles (on hand), and a smaller bag with the grated cheese (I used cheddar because it was on hand), then just combined it all the day I needed to serve it. Of six adults and four children, only one said they didn't like it (picky eater), one said it's okay, and the rest really liked it, and wanted me to pass on the recipe. Even the 1 and 3 year olds liked it!

No doubt about it - this is probably my all-time favorite salad. I included it for our Easter dinner, and it was so good that it practically overshadowed everything else. I made the receipe exactly as written.
