Broccoli and Bacon Salad
This is a favorite summer time salad. Ok the bacon really helps make it a favorite summer salad ! The cranberries add some sweetness along with the saltiness of the bacon. The crunch of fresh broccoli and the nuts and seeds, just makes it a winner ! I would say the most important part here is the bacon the dressing, the rest is really a mix and match of what you might have on hand, at the momment !

SALAD:
2 heads fresh broccoli, washed and cut into bite-size flowerets
