Fresh Broccoli Salad

This is a salad that my Mom has made for years that is enjoyed by all.  She said the secret is to take the time to cut the brocolli very small.  This way each little piece will be covered in the dressing.

1 large bunch of fresh broccoli – cut into very small pieces to make 4 – 5 cups

1 cup white raisins

1/2 cup diced red onion

10 strips of bacon, fried crisp and crumbled

1 cup roasted sunflower seeds

Mix and toss with the following dressing:

1  1/2 T. sugar

2 T. vinegar

1 cup mayonaise

Mix in 1/2 – 3/4 of the dressing.  Chill. 

Add more dressing if needed.
