Crisyn's Thoughts
By Crisyn This is a wonderful raw version of the traditional broccoli salad with bacon and cheddar.
Someone else deserves the credit for this recipe, but I can’t remember where I got it from. Sorry!
I am not a huge fan of onions, so I prefer to use only 1/4 cup and add the onion to the dressing ingredients in the blender.
I also sometimes throw the broccoli in the dehydrator for a while before I mix it with the other ingredients, just to soften it up a little.

Holy wow....this is better than the SAD version. Now I used onions because I like 'em. I also used sea salt with dulse and kelp in the dressing. Added more water because the dressing was too thick but by the gods it tasted like mayo and bacon pretty insanely yummers.

I made this tonight for my boyfriend and he went crazy over it. This is better then the broccoli salad I had when I was younger. I think this is my new favorite recipe! Thanks for posting!

Excellent, yummy, I'm still thinking about it an hour after dinner. My boyfriend (an open minded meat eater) LOVED it. I can't wait to make it for friends.

amazing! thank you for the idea. I actually used pine nuts instead of the cashwes and I made a different sauce with turmenic and miso and nutritional yeast. It came out so good! I will bring this to the raw potluck I am going to tonight. I think it will be a hit!

I made this last night for dinner!
I used dried goji berries in place of the sunflower seeds.
They came out looking a little like bacon bits.

Mothergoose9, so sorry about your husband's diagnosis but I agree with you to try a natural approach first. Have you checked out the Hallelujah Diet? hacres.com. They recommend 85% raw but mainly because they think most people wouldn't be able to go the drastic 100% raw (I think that's the reason.) Anyway...they have lots of testimonies on their website from people who have overcome all sorts of cancers using this diet. I've read that you should be careful about eating too much fat..even if it's from raw seeds, nuts or avacados or "good" oils, etc. Best of luck on your diet. Oh, if you aren't familiar with Dr. Douglas Graham, you might check him out also. Would love to hear from you again.

I didn't care for the texture of the sunflower seeds just put into the bowl, so I processed them with the rest of the dressing with about a cup of water instead of just the 1/4 cup. This worked fantasticaly! It made the salad more creamy,
Thanks for the great recipe.

By the way, I left out the onions 'cause I didn't have any. It's still awesome though.

Wow, this is good! I have to admit I was quite skeptical at first. I typically don't mix vegetables with sweets, but there was so much hype I just had to try it. And I love it! You've officially saved the broccoli in my fridge!

I made this for me and my husband and we LOVED it! He said the dressing tasted somewhat like cesear dressing. So many things you could do with the dressing.
Thanks for sharing!

I tried this for dinner today and loved it! (I didn't really expect to because my broccoli salads have always tasted bitter before) Thank you so much for posting the recipe!

No freakin' way! This tastes EXACTLY like the SAD version my mom makes that I LOVE. I am so impressed what you can do with cashews. Who knew?

WOW!!!!! People down under love it!!!!
I put this salad together yesterday and all guests loved the taste.
Mind you, I cheated a little and substituted the Onion with Spring Onion.
Chef son of mine tells me it needs refinement to uplift presentation.
So... I have challenged him to assist modify this scrumptious concoction.
Shall post the finished product soon as we are happy.
By the way... Shove the mix between 2 slices of high quality fibre bread. Makes the taste buds work....

Oh so good!!! We had this for dinner and it is just as good as the "SAD" version. I like leftovers and there wasn't much leftover :-(
I soaked the cashews for 2 hours and I think I will add more water to the dressing next time...I like it a little runnier. Personal preference :-) Definitely a keeper recipe!!!

This salad is so close to the fat laiden one it you had your eyes closed and tasted it you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Even my husband said "not bad" This one is a keeper.
