This recipe comes from my mom who got the recipe from one of my great aunts. This is a wonderful little side dish that is super easy to make and take to a potluck dinner or a host's house. My mom used to make this salad for several family get-togethers and it was always a family favorite. Very rarely were there any leftovers and this was a side dish that was bound to be requested by at least three family members.
Not much work goes into this dish at all so it's an easy one to prepare and I love making it ahead of time too. I had mine ready two days before serving and Hubby couldn't keep his fork out of the bowl! The sauce used for this salad is something that can be used for coleslaw as well. I've never actually used it on coleslaw but it would be delicious on really anything I think! Definitely try this salad out and let me know how it goes!
What You Need:
- 3 clumps broccoli
- 1 head cauliflower
- 8 oz. cheddar cheese, finely shredded
- 1 lb. bacon, fried and crumbled
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tbsp. vinegar
- 1/2 cup sugar
How to Do It:
First, cut up broccoli and cauliflower into bite-size pieces and combine with cheddar cheese in a large Tupperware bowl. Whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, and sugar and pour over salad mixture. If you are making your salad ahead of time, only add the crumbled bacon before serving. Mix all together and chill for at least an hour before serving.
