The Best Broccoli Salad

Broccoli Salad is one of my favorite go-to salad recipes. It features fresh broccoli, crisp smoked bacon, sweet red onion, and crunchy sliced almonds in a slightly sweet mayo base. It is always one of the first side dishes to disappear at parties, potlucks, family reunions, and neighborhood BBQs.

You will love this broccoli salad’s crunchy texture and the mayonnaise-based dressing’s creamy taste. This dish comes together quickly and easily, especially if you precook the bacon or purchase it cooked.
It is a great side dish for pork tenderloin, buffalo chicken, or country-style ribs.
