Broccoli/Cauliflower Salad (a la Cleopha)

I made this for a 'plant-based' potluck and omitted the bacon. I have also substituted dried cranberries for the raisins before. You get to decide how much of each ingredient you want. I like it better if the broccoli and cauliflower florets are cut very small, but I've seen it with larger florets, as well. Depends on how much time you want to spend chopping vegetables. :) It's a very forgiving salad.

Broccoli-Cauliflower Salad

broccoli (florets)
cauliflower (florets)
bacon (cooked and crumbled)
onion (finely diced)
cashews
raisins
sunflower seeds

Dressing:
1 c. mayonnaise
1/4 c. sugar (or honey)
1 Tbsp. vinegar

Assemble ingredients. Toss to mix. Serve chilled. (If you are assembling this very far ahead of time, don't add the bacon and the nuts until fairly close to serving time.)
