A friend of mine brought this to a get-together. The minute I tasted it I knew I had to have the recipe. I have brought it to parties several times and am always asked for the recipe. Enjoy!

How To Make midwest broccoli salad

Step 1

Note: This recipe has to be made the day before serving. Cook Bacon until crisp. Chop and set aside.

Step 2

I break up the broccoli the day before since this is the step that takes the longest. I actually do this while watching tv. Break the florets into small pieces and cut the stems small since the broccoli is eaten raw.
Step 3

Mix mayo, sugar, vinegar and raisins together. Add to broccoli and scallions. Refrigerate overnight.
Step 4

Add nuts and bacon just before serving.
