Broccoli Cauliflower Salad

  4.3 – 3 reviews  • Cauliflower

A delectable British treat combined with patriotic colors. In addition to being a popular complement to barbecues and picnics in the US, trifles are a traditional summertime dessert in England. We prepare this every July Fourth and Memorial Day, but it tastes good anytime.

I didn’t have bacon but it tasted great without. Used red onion and only a couple tablespoons of mayo.

I have to admit one reason I tried this recipe is because no one had reviewed it. I really enjoyed this broccoli cauliflower salad. I cut back on the sugar and bacon but still it was very delicious. Since I did not say what kind of vinegar to use our used white wine vinegar.
