Quick Bacon Broccoli Salad

Recipe #169575 | 30 min | 20 min prep | add private note

I've made this many times as a hurry-up side dish. When trying to figure out which region this recipe represented, I finally closed my eyes & picked one. Italian? Well, the word broccoli does come from the Italian "brocco" meaning arm branch so it kind of fits. Enjoy!

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Cook bacon in microwave until crisp. (I've used pre-cooked & packaged bacon in a pinch).
  2. 2
    Cook broccoli in microwave until crisp tender, 8-10 minutes. Drain.
  3. 3
    In a large bowl, toss drained broccoli, carrot & onion.
  4. 4
    In a glass bowl or measuring cup, combine vinegar, sugar & oil. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes then pour over vegetable mixture. Toss to coat.
  5. 5
    Add salt & pepper to taste.
  6. 6
    Serve arm or chilled (I prefer warm.).
  7. 7
    Crumble bacon over top when ready to serve.

DH said that he would try this if I didn't put in the onion. Since the man does not, as a rule, eat salads I agreed. He actually like it! That alone is worth 5 stars. I used some cauliflower in this as I had it and thought that it would be nice, it was. It could have been a bit less sweet for me but DH thought it was perfect. It was really very good and very easy to make. Thanks for a great salad Susie. Made for 1-2-3 Tag.

    Used lower-sodium bacon. I love that this is an all-microwave dish. Makes it very convenient. I had it both warm and (the leftovers) cold--tasted great both ways. It may even have been a bit better the second day.
