    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: TXWow was Alliea right when she said this was different and really great. My SIL asked me to bring Broccoli salad to Thanksgiving and I pulled this one out because it did look different and got such good reviews. I highly recommend it! I used the bacon bits, onion and mandarin oranges and the flavor combo was just right. My BIL raved over it and insisted on the recipe.

    List of Ingredients




    Custard Dressing
    1 egg lightly beaten
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 1/2 tsp cornstarch
    1/4 cup vinegar
    1/4 cup water

    Whisk together stirring constantly over medium heat until thickened (I add the egg last folding it into about a half cup of warm dressing first) so egg doesn't cook .
    Remove from heat, stir in 1 TBSP butter
    Cool slightly then stir in 1/2 cup Mayo (I like Hellmanns lower fat but not fat free Mayo) Chill.

    Recipe



    Toss together 4-6 cups fresh broccoli florets, 6 slices cooked and crumbled bacon,1/2 medium Vidalia onion diced. .

    ****The last items are optional and dependant on taste and or occasion:
    1 can drained Mandarin oranges
    2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
    1/2 cup slivered almonds
    1/2 cup raisins

    Fold dressing into salad ingredients. Chill
