- 1 pound bacon
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 5 green onions, chopped
- cup sunflower seeds
- cup golden raisins
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- cup white sugar
- 6 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Directions
Step 1: Place bacon in a large skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly browned. Once cooked, remove from heat, allow it to cool, then crumble the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
Step 2: In a large bowl, toss together the broccoli florets, chopped green onions, sunflower seeds, golden raisins, and the crumbled bacon.
Step 3: In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, white sugar, and red wine vinegar. Stir well until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4: Pour the dressing over the vegetables and bacon mixture. Toss everything together to ensure the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
Step 5: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and enhance the taste.
