Ingredients

12 ounces broccoli cut into bite sized pieces
6 slices bacon cooked, rough chopped
⅓ cup red onion small diced
½ cup sunflower seed kernels roasted and salted
1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded

Dressing

1 cup mayo
2 ¾ teaspoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper

I always use Kosher salt in my kitchen! If using table salt, start with half the amount and adjust to taste, as it is much "saltier" by volume.

Instructions

In a large bowl combine the broccoli, red onion, bacon, shredded cheese and sunflower seeds. Stir well to combine.
For the dressing: In a separate bowl combine the mayo, sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix until fully combined.
Add the dressing to the broccoli salad and stir to fully incorporate. Enjoy!
