User Reviews:

Broccoli salad was requested at the recent BBQ I went to and I was a bit hesitant at first, but this was a GREAT recipe. I didn't have any bacon so I left this ingredient out, but I don't think it would have made a huge difference, I got rave reviews! Great recipe!

This salad is delicious but 'high' in fat. One can still have the taste but less fat by doing the following in place of the original ingredients:
*Use 1/2c. of light mayo
*Use lowfat milk and increase it to 1/2c.
*Use 1/4 c. of imitation bacon bits
*Add 1 tsp. of white vinegar
*Use 6 packets of Equal sweetener in place of sugar.
*Cut sunflower seeds to 1/4 c.
