What is the red in the salad pictured? Red onion? Chopped apple? Dried cranberries?

Does the broccoli and cauliflower need to be blanched?

This is an awesome salad!! The bad news is it is NO WHERE near 15 minute prep time!! By the time I cooked 1/2 pound of bacon, washed cut and chopped both a head of cauliflower and broccoli, (and I used the Vidalia Onion chopper to do it!!), then broke apart the bacon, added the dressing, etc. it was about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes by the time I put it in the fridge. It is worth it, but unrealistic to say it is 15 minutes from start to finish.

This salad is sooooo yummy!!! The dressing is a tad on the sweet side, but you could cut back the sugar. I substituted pepper bacon real bacon pieces (in the salad fixings aisle) for the bacon (no cook, no mess) and I used pre-shredded triple cheddar blend cheese. All I can say is WOW!! I will definitely be making this again!!!! -
Excellent, and very tasty. But...it takes a long time to make and frankly, I like quick and easy. This is delicious but it is not quick. The 15 minute prep time? I have no idea how that was done in 15 minutes. The chopping alone too me forever.

This is a great salad recipe. On the second batch, For a little flare I used cracked pepper olive oil mayonnaise. It gave it a nice kick and offset the sweetness. I also added sunflower seeds and golden raisins. A new favorite! -
Cut sugar to 1/3 cup. Threw in some grated parmeson. YUM

This recipe is great!!! I never added cauliflower to the mix. I really love onions so I add either red or green, it’s a hit ??????

Bonnie J: NOWHERE does the recipe (or others like it) suggest you cook the broccoli!
