Get ready to double or triple this one, it's THAT good! Anything that makes me say "more please" to broccoli is a good thing. Note that the broccoli wilts down some resulting in less than you start with.


Cut up in bite size pieces: Fresh raw broccoli cucumbers, lots of tomatoes, red onions, bag of coleslaw cabbage,or any vegetable you like and add to 1 cup of mayo or so with 2 Tbsp. of sugar-sweeten to taste


In large mixing bowl add chopped broccoli, crisp bacon and shredded cheese. Mix dressing separately and pour over the mixture, stir together.


When I serve this salad for company, I pray there are some leftovers because it tastes double yummy the next day.
