Description
A classic broccoli salad with fresh broccoli florets, crispy bacon, red onion, raisins, and sunflower seeds in a sweet, tangy mayo and vinegar dressing. Made ahead and refrigerated so the dressing softens the raw broccoli slightly. A potluck staple that holds up beautifully.

Make this at least an hour ahead — the dressing softens the raw broccoli and the flavors meld significantly. Overnight is even better.
