Broccoli Salad

Ingredients
2 lbs Fresh Broccoli (So we know this one's going to be semi-healthy/good for you). Trim and cut into 1 inch pieces.
1/2 lb Sliced Bacon (Things looking up) cooked and crumbled.
2 Cups (8 oz) Shredded Mozzarella Cheese.
1/2 Mdium Red Onion, chopped (Think it takes at least two plant products to qualify as a salad).

Dressing
1 Cup Mayonnaise
1/2 Cup Sugar
2 Tbsp Cider Vinegar

In a large salad bowl, combine broccoli, bacon, cheese and onion. In a separate bowl, combine dressing ingredients. Add to salad and toss. Chill. Put your feet up and take a break... oh, my editor informs me not that kind of "chill". Serves 8 - 10. More if they don't like broccoli.
