This is a delicious Broccoli Salad, The recipe was given to me by my daughter Peggy. She has made it for family get togethers and pot lucks. Everyone seems to like it even people that doesn't care for broccoli. Sugar substitute can be used, also nonfat or low-fat mayonnaise and it still tastes great.I used less bacon, light mayonnaise and sliced almonds. Time does not include chilling time.

Even without the bacon this salad was savory and crunchy and delicious. I substituted Nayonnaise, vidalia onions, and apple cider vinegar without disrupting the integrity of the recipe too much. It turned out very tasty indeed, especially the sweet bites with the raisins. Thanks, Barbara
