Notes
Hints and Tips:
Meat. We like to use organic free-range bacon as it's better for us, and the pig has a better life. You can swap out or add to the bacon with ham, ground beef, or shredded chicken.
Broccoli. We add the broccoli raw and uncooked as we like crunch. Also, you don't lose any nutrients when it isn't cooked. If you prefer, you can lightly steam the broccoli.
Mayonnaise. We make our own Whole Egg Mayonnaise, but you can use store-bought whole egg mayonnaise.
How To Store: Keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to three days. Most salads are not suitable for freezing and are best made fresh.
