My sister came to visit with her daughter and grandchildren, and I'm not going to lie, I was nervous about having healthy kid-friendly food in the house. I tried to make lots of things in advance, or at least prep so that I could spend time with my guests. One of the best things I made (IMHO) was broccoli salad. The Amish Market makes a version that I've bought before, but I have never made it! It was delicious! I don't think the kids ate it, but I'm putting it into heavy summer rotation. I honestly didn't measure anything (except the dressing) and had lots of the ingredients in my pantry.
Ingredients
5-6 cups of broccoli florets cut into small bite size pieces
2/3 c. craisins
1/2 c. bacon crumbles
1/2 red onion finely chopped
1/2 c. salted sunflower seeds
