This is a wonderful broccoli salad. Everything in this salad is delicious all together. Thanks Baby Kato :) Made for the Australian recipe swap for July 2011

Loved it! The only change I made was using turkey bacon and frying the onion because raw onion makes me incredibly sick. I used home made mayo and gluten free Worcestershire sauce. Huge hit!! Thanks for sharing :) Made for For Your Consideration.

Wonderful, delicious and I'm so glad I have leftovers. Loved the dressing for this salad and I think the worchestershire sauce really adds a great flavor. The only change I made was to use "truvia" vs. sugar; otherwise I didn't and I wouldn't change a thing. Made for Spring PAC, 2014.

I love broccoli, it's my favorite veg, and this is a wonderful way to eat it. The leftover from last night is going to be my dinner tonight all by it's self. It really doesn't need another thing on the plate. I did use just half the ask for amount of Worcestershire sauce and that was good for me and I omitted all sugar as I find raisins to be very sweet little bits in themselves. All in all a real keeper. :D

This was a tasty recipe...I have made this variation of a recipe before but I haven't ever used worcestershire sauce. Delicious! I cut the recipe in half and used dired cranberries (didn't have rasins) and otherwise followed the instructions. Made for 2013 Zaar Cookbook tag game.
