  • Re: Cheddar Broccoli Salad

    I never knew raw broccoli could taste so good. This salad has raves when I make it. I make it all the time now. But I believe that 2/3 cup sugar is to sweet, and especially when you double the recipe. I stick to about less than a cup when doubled. Its so awesome.

    Thanks
