Broccoli Salad
"A friend from work brought this to a pot luck lunch and the women I work with all raved about it. This was such a hit, we all asked for the recipe. Now it's my turn to share it. My husband and I are diabetic, so I've substituted Splenda for white sugar and lowfat mayo instead of regular mayonaise. It's yummy either way you prepare it. Enjoy!"

ingredients
- 1 bunch broccoli
- 10 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1⁄4 cup red onion, chopped
- 1⁄2 cup toasted sunflower seeds
- 3⁄4 cup light mayonnaise
- 1⁄4 cup Splenda sugar substitute
- 3 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
directions
- Mix mayo, sugar, vinegar and pepper.
- Pour over diced broccoli and onions just before serving.
- Add sunflower seeds and bacon.
- Mix well.
- This salad doesn't keep well after the sunflower seeds have been added.
- So, it's best to add them last.
- We are diabetic, so"Splenda" is used in place of sugar.
- This salad will disappear lickety-split!
- Enjoy!

Well, laura, I did use the lowfat and Splenda and it was still good. I subbed toasted pine nuts for the sunflower seeds. It will keep for days but alas, I don't have any leftovers. -

I live in South Florida with my adorable husband and a spoiled cat (kids are raised and out of the nest). I've never been one of those "I LOVE to COOK Women" , I considered it a necessary evil, like washing laundry and housework. However, after stumbling upon this website, I've combined computer fun with recipe searching and am amazed at the abundance of great ideas you can find here.
