Broccoli Salad

Ingredients:

5 broccoli crowns, cut small/bite-size
1 red onion, chopped fine
1 cup raisins (I used cranberries)
1 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 pkg cooked bacon, cut small

Dressing:
1-1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons apple cidar vinegar (I used balsamic vinegar)
1/2 cup sugar

I don't like my broccoli super crunchy, so I like to blanch the broccoli first, mix up the dressing, and then mix everything together.
