You could make green beans, which is easy but a crowd pleaser. fresh green beans 1 lb of bacon 1 jar of pearl onions place your cleaned green beans in a pot of water and allow to boil slice the bacon into small bits and brown cook until the beans are still firm but not crunchy, and drain some of the water off. add the bacon and a couple tablespoons of the fat into the pot then add the onions and the juice from the onions, and allow to simmer for about 15 minutes. |

Its kinda of thick but ohh so tasty poured over any kinda of pasta I love Zucchini! Now I remember my mom making a casserole out of it, sliced in layers with marinara sauce and cheese in every layer. Both sound yummy! |

For the broccoli salad....you can use green onion or red. Raisins or grapes. The one I tasted didn't have sunflower seeds in it and the sauce wasn't mayonnaise based, but I can't locate a recipe with a sweet sauce that doesn't have mayo in it.
* 1 head fresh broccoli, cut into bite size pieces * 1/2 cup raisins * 1/4 cup red onion, chopped * 2 tablespoons white sugar * 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar * 1 cup mayonnaise * 1 cup sunflower seeds * 10 slices bacon DIRECTIONS 1. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Crumble and set aside. 2. In a salad bowl, toss together broccoli, raisins and red onions. In a separate bowl, whisk together the white sugar, vinegar and mayonnaise. Pour over broccoli mixture and toss to coat. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. 3. Before serving, sprinkle with sunflower seeds and crumbled bacon. Toss and serve. |
