Broccoli Salad

This is my sister in laws version of her broccoli salad.  I believe it is better than the original one that I had posted earlier.

3 heads Broccoli cut in small florets
1/2 lb Bacon crisp and crumbled
1 cup Craisins
1/2 cup chopped Almonds
small Onion chopped fine
8 oz shredded Cheddar Cheese

Mix together.

Dressing

1 1/2 cups Hellman's Mayo
3/4 cup sugar
3 Tbsp red wine vinegar

Mix together and refrigerate dressing over night.  Put on salad 2-3 hours before serving.

1 package bacon bits - or you can cook up a 1/2 lb bacon crumbled up
1 cup red grapes - cut in half
1 cup craisins
1 cup green onions - top and all cut up
1/3 cup silvered almonds or sunflower seeds

Dressing:

1 1/2 cup Hellmann's mayo
1/3 cup sugar

Still all together and chill.  Add dressing to salad right before serving
