Send in the Amish

This salad always reminds me of summertime. If you need a good dose of sunshine, try this easy recipe.

Amish Broccoli Salad

1 large head broccoli, broken into small florets
1 med. red onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
8-10 slices bacon
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar
2-3 Tbs cider vinegar
1/2 cup raisins
1/4 cup shelled and salted sunflower seeds

Cut bacon into bits and fry crisp. Mix together mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, bacon, and raisins.

Pour over broccoli and onions. Mix well. Top with sunflower seeds.

Let stand at least 1 hour or more before serving.
