  1. This is a great salad! I had to make some changes for dietary restrictions and to accommodate what I had on hand (only 1/4 cup sugar, red wine vinegar instead of cider vinegar, craisins instead of raisins, Vidalia onion instead of red onion, and no bacon) but the combination of broccoli, peanut, and onion was fantastic. Thanks so much for a great recipe; my husband asked for it two days after the first time we ate it and that's saying a lot.
     
  2. I love broccoli salad! This was good with the variation of the peanuts. I used veggie bacon and a only 1/2 cup sugar. Thanks Sharlene!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in the San Francisco area and love it here. I discovered Recipezaar (then Food.com..Genius Kitchen) in 2001 and have been so happy to have my favorite recipes stored safely here. I am mother to 7 and grandmother to 7. I love to knit, smock, sew, etc., but my favorite hobby of the moment is traditional rug hooking. This is a sample of what I do.? It's called "November".? I dyed most of the wool myself. It is made from wool flannel, cut into strips a little less than 1/4" and then worked into a linen backing. This is my 3rd rug.
