Mandarin Orange & Broccoli Salad

Description: This is a great salad recipe that I got from a co-worker. Everyone asks for the recipe and there is usually none left over. Tastes even better the next day.

Ingredients:

• 8 cups broccoli florets
• 1 jar hormel real bacon bits
• 1 (15 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/2 cup diced red onion
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Steps:

1. Toss all ingredients together.
2. Pour mixed and chilled dressing over and toss again.
3. I like to put the mandarin oranges on last, after the dressing, so they don't break up too much.
4. I sort of fold them in gently when serving.
