Broccoli Cashew Salad

Broccoli Cashew Salad

I had to test this on friends and family since my husband continues to pass on broccoli- based dishes, (Nobody’s perfect , but he comes very close) Everyone agreed how nice it was to savor the flavor of cashews even while eating for better health!

3 cups chopped fresh broccoli

½ cup seedless raisins

In a large bowl, combine broccoli raisins, onion, cashews and bacon bits. In a small bowl combine mayonnaise vinegar and SPLENDA Add dressing mixture to broccoli mixture. Toss gently to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at leasr30 minutes. Gently Stir again just before serving.
