This salad is always a winner! My friends had been making it for a while and I was looking for the recipe... for the dressing. I haven't tried this exact version, but ours is pretty close. Instead of craisins we use raisins, and also replace the cashews by sunflower seeds. I also add a bit of orange cheddar to this recipe. AWESOME! You can't go wrong with this one, just let your imagination go. You need crunch, a little sweet and a little salt.

First off, this salad does not take any time at all to put together, as long as one counts neither the time needed to fry the bacon nor the time needed to chill it! That said, this is A GREAT TASTING SALAD, even though I used only half of the amount of bacon indicated! Loved the flavor, crunch & chew that the nuts, craisins & crisp bacon gave to the broccoli! A real keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick-A-Chef]

<p>Hi! I'm jamie, 30 years old, divorced a couple years now. Before i got married, I had no clue how to cook other than simple top ramens or pasta ronis. Although, the women in my family (mom, aunt, grandma, great grandma, etc) were amazing cooks. One of the wedding gifts I recieved was an handwritten cookbook from my grandmother who collected all the family recipes from over the years, it is so treasured to me. I began my journey in cooking though that cookbook, and now i consider myself a pretty good cook ;p at least i've been told so!! :) <br /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /> <br />Hope you will give some of my recipes a try! And if you do, please leave a review... i love to hear what people think of the dishes, good and bad. I truly enjoy cooking and am always looking for ways to make my dishes yummier and irrestible!</p>
