Footnotes

Cook's Note:
The recipe calls for raw broccoli, but I like to microwave about 2 minutes in a small bit of water to steam, then chill. I also use light mayo or salad dressing and Splenda®. You can omit the chicken and it makes a delicious broccoli salad.

This salad is exceptional! I adore the bacon/chicken combo it is super in this salad. Added diced yellow peppers that went well with the green onions. Love the crunch of the walnuts. Simply added S&P to the dressing before whisking it up. The submitters note states you can use raw or a quick steamed in the microwave broccoli, I used raw. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

This has very little flavor. Neither my husband thought it was worth making again.

Fantastic salad! I don't use sugar, so subbed honey instead. Fried up a whole pkg of uncured bacon and added to the salad instead of sprinkling on top as a garnish. The dressing is perfect! Will make this salad A LOT!! There is a lot, but leftovers will be perfect for lunches.

Great summer salad. I added half a red apple, chopped small, and that extra sweetness added a lot. I put the salad on top of lettuce when I served it.
