Broccoli Salad With Cashews Low Carb - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb fresh broccoli florets
    6 slices bacon, cooked crisp and chopped coarse
    1/3 cup cashews, cut coarse
    1/2 cup mayonnaise, Best Foods, Hellmanns Mayonnaise
    1/4 cup heavy cream
    3 (1 g) packets Splenda sugar substitute
    1/2 cup raisins (optional)
    salt and black pepper
Preparation
    In a good size pot (6 quart or larger) of boiling water, place the florets of broccoli and cook until water just reaches a boil again. This will result in tender-crisp broccoli.
    Once water reaches a boil, remove broccoli from heat and dump into a colander.
    Douse with cold water to stop the cooking.
    In a bowl, mix the mayo, cream and Splenda.
    Stir in the nuts and bacon (and optional raisins).
    Lightly toss in the broccoli.
    Taste and adjust seasonings, adding salt and pepper, a little extra mayo, Splenda or cream if needed.
    Refrigerate.
