My Aunt Susan always makes this wonderful broccoli salad and I finally managed to get the recipe from her. This would be great as a side dish or to eat by itself.

  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (you can use splenda or ideal especially if you are diabetic)

  2. Add in the rest of the ingredients and mix well.
  3. Dressing:
  4. Whisk all ingredients together until well blended. Sugar should be dissolved.
  5. Note: When adding dressing to salad, the dressing will liquefy after sitting for a few minutes, so add enough dressing to lightly coat, without drenching the salad.
