Ingredients

0.5 pound bacon
2 heads fresh broccoli
1 small red onion
0.75 cup raisins
0.75 cup sliced almonds
1 cup mayonnaise
0.5 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

Instructions

Prepare all the ingredients for the broccoli salad.
Cook bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy and evenly browned, about 7 to 10 minutes. Drain excess grease, let cool, and then crumble into pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked bacon, broccoli florets, red onion, raisins, and sliced almonds. Toss to combine.
For the dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sugar, and vinegar until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli salad mixture. Stir gently until the broccoli and other ingredients are evenly coated.
Serve the broccoli salad immediately for best texture, or chill in the refrigerator before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy this delightful salad!
