Ingredients

• 2 heads fresh broccoli (not frozen)
• 1/2 cup red onion, chopped
• 1/2 pound bacon
• 1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese (Don’t buy the pre-grated stuff for this; buy a block and grate it yourself. The texture is much better.)
• 2 1/2 tablespoons vinegar
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1/3 cup sugar

Directions

1. Chop bacon into bite-sized pieces and cook to desired crispness. Drain on paper towels.
2. Chop broccoli florets into bite-size pieces. Combine broccoli, bacon, onions and cheddar cheese in a large bowl.
3. In a separate bowl combine vinegar, sugar and mayonnaise. Pour over broccoli mixture and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate until serving (it’s best when made a day ahead).
