We liked this alot....this was our 'meal' tonight! I tossed the broccoli and onion into the food processor and pulsed it a few times, dumped it into a bowl and added the remainder of the ingredients and then the 'dressing'. I did use 'McCormick Mayonesa', which contains lime juice.( I love this stuff!!) Thanks for the recipe MsPia

Whoever Judy is, she sure knows how to make Broccoli Salad! This is one of those crunchy, munchy salads that is a meal in itself and it was delicious. I did change the dressing ingredients to 1/2 cup mayo; 2 T apple cider vinegar and only 1 T sugar which was plenty enough sweetness for our tastebuds.

I'm lucky to have had two amazing grandmothers with a passion for cooking.My Nona was from the north of Italy and Lolo was from Spain. Lolo used to make pickle fish. You would think that is a kids worst nightmare, but it was fabulous. I would kill for that recipe.My mother was also a wonderful cook. I grew up eating the most amazing food; her lasagna and Bolognese sauce are out of this world.
I am originally from Argentina and living in Colorado for the past 25 years. As you can imagine, I love to cook, eat and entertain. I read cookbooks like novels.
There is nothing that I enjoy more than traveling. I love the challenge of a new culture and a foreign language. Of course all my traveling is culinary oriented. Eventually I would love to move to Italy. Italians, in my opinion, have the perfect life style; Hard work in the morning, good food for lunch, nice siesta and out for a "giro" (go for a round) in the afternoons to visit with your friends over a cup of coffee.
My daughter is a great baker; she has a natural talent for it. We can make the exact same recipe and hers ALWAYS tastes much better.
