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?

Well, you need some knives, a cutting board and measuring cups and spoons. And a beautiful dish to serve it in doesn’t hurt!
