This is a very simple salad that I enjoy in the summertime especially when it’s hot out The flavors just blend perfectly when mixed together If you’re looking for something different to bring to a bbq this is always eaten right up 🙂 

Ingredients:

• 2 Heads of Broccoli (washed and all the florets cut off, discard the stems)
• 8 Pieces of Thick Cut Bacon (cooked crisp but not burned)
• 1 Cup of Fresh Corn (I cut it right off the cob)
• 1/2 Cup of Red Onion (finely chopped)
• 1 Cup of Cheddar Cheese (shredded)

Dressing:

• 1/4 Cup of Red Wine Vinegar
• 1/8 Cup of White Sugar
• 2/3 Cups of Mayonnaise or Greek Yogurt
• 2 tsp of Fresh Squeezed Lemmon Juice
• Salt & Pepper to Taste

***Mix all the ingredients for the salad dressing together, adding salt and pepper to your liking, refrigerate until ready to use

Directions:

1. Steam your broccoli florets for about 3 minutes so that they are bright green and still crunchy Set aside to cool
2. Cook your bacon until crispy, remove to paper towel so the grease drains then chop into bite size pieces
3. In your serving bowl combine your steamed broccoli florets, corn, bacon and dressing together until well combined
4. Stir in your cheese blending well
5. Refrigerate until ready to eat
