My kids used to eat broccoli raw. No joke, like rabbits or whichever kind of animal likes to gnaw on raw vegetables. I, too, enjoy a bit of broccoli but with a dipping sauce. And bacon, well, what is there terrible to say about bacon? This broccoli bacon salad recipe is a winner for the whole family at any time of year.
