I can’t get enough of this broccoli salad.
I know it sounds strange, but there’s just something about the sweet/savory combination here that I can’t resist. And with raw broccoli at its foundation, this is a nutritious side dish to any meal. Broccoli is a good source of vitamin C, as well as vitamin B-6, vitamin A, and calcium.
Bring this to your next potluck and you’ll be surprised by its popularity. You can make it ahead of time and keep it in the fridge until you’re ready to serve it.

It is also wonderful with grapes instead of raisins (pretty with red ones at Christmas) and it keeps for days!

Thanks so much for the recipe. My husband works at a farm and he brought home 14 heads of broccoli today! This helped use some of it up!

Oh! My mom makes something very similar but with mushrooms instead of raisins, and even though I pick the mushrooms out, it’s my all-time favorite salad. I’ll have to try this recipe out soon! It looks delicious.
