Ingredients

6 cups chopped fresh broccoli, including stems blanched, drained and cooled (I do not blanch, but leave it like it is)
1 cup raisins
1/2 lb bacon, fried crisp and crumbled
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh red onion
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup roasted sunflower seeds (optional)

Layer broccoli, raisin, bacon and onion in 2 1/2 quart serving bowl.
Mix sugar, vinegar, and mayonnaise.
together in small bowl; spread over onions sealing to edges of bowl.
Sprinkle sunflower seeds on top.

Just before serving, toss thoroughly.
I do not put the bacon in until I toss it before serving.
I also just bought the packages of broccoli that was ready to serve.
