1. I cut the bacon into bite-sized pieces and cook it until it reaches the desired crispness. After cooking, I drain the bacon on paper towels.
2. I chop the broccoli florets into bite-size pieces and mix them with the bacon, chopped onions, and grated cheddar cheese in a large bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, I blend vinegar, sugar, and mayonnaise. I then pour this mixture over the broccoli combination and toss everything to ensure thorough coating. Afterward, I cover the bowl and refrigerate it until I’m ready to serve.
Notes: To slightly soften the broccoli, I usually steam it in the microwave for about 2 minutes. For this, I place the broccoli in a microwave-safe bowl, add approximately 1/2 inch of water to the bottom, cover it with a paper towel, and microwave for 2 minutes. This recipe is equally delicious even without the cheese!
