Broccoli Salad
Hi. It’s Lois in the kitchen at Recipe Idea Shop, with a delicious Broccoli Salad recipe. This recipe originally came from Don’s mom, Momma Betty, and it is our daughter Roni’s favorite salad.
It’s a good “covered dish” to take to a potluck dinner. I made it yesterday to take to Valley Friends Meeting (Quakers) today because Meeting was having a special speaker after Meeting for Worship.
Broccoli Salad is easy and quite tasty. I often buy the precut bags of broccoli at Costco. That makes it super simple. It does have a good bit of sugar and mayonnaise in it, like any old-fashioned Southern recipe. Recently, however, I made it with just 1/8 cup of sugar and I couldn’t tell the difference.
Some people make it with crumbled bacon added. That sounds delicious to me!
What Do You Need for This Recipe?
