Broccoli Cranberry Bacon Salad

 When we think of salads, summer picnics comes to mind. This festive broccoli salad is great any time of the year. (I love making it for holiday parties) Broccoli is high in Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and chromium. It has plenty of antioxidants and offers many more much needed nutrients as well.
