Ok, I weighed in and gained a pound. I am calling this my grieving pound. I thought I was doing pretty good but then again who am I kidding. I haven't counted any points in weeks, and the last week and a half and 2 deaths later has thrown me for a loop emotionally. I am not copping out, but I am being real. So, i'll get back to it at some point. Yesterday I told the kids tomorrow would be the day and Rachael laughed at me and asked how many days I have said that now. Whatever! :o)
My children have this thing for broccoli salad and they beg me to make it weekly. Every time I make it I become mom of the week around here which I happen to like! One would think that it might be odd for kids to love broccoli salad, and I am not necessarily thinking it is normal, but I do know it is pretty tasty. I decided for today's post to share my recipe. Beware, I am all about easy so don't expect something elaborate, and I cook for a crowd so if you want to make this adjust to your size of family. 1/2 package of broccoli florets from Costco (chopped) 1/2 red cabbage (shredded) 2 handfuls (or add to desired preference) of Craisins 2 handfuls (or add to desired preference) of real bacon bits 2 handfuls (or add to desired preference) of unsalted sunflower seeds 1/2 a bottle of Kraft Creamy Poppyseed Dressing Mix Seriously, if my kids scarf this salad down I promise most kids will.
