broccoli with cashews


i saved this recipe from simply organic,
a cookbook i checked out from the library years ago.

goes great with black bean burgers
& good barbecue potato chips.

broccoli with cashews
1 large bunch broccoli
1/3 cup mayonnaise
3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 medium red onion, very thinly sliced
1/2 cup cashews
1/4 cup raisins
salt & pepper

directions
cut broccoli into florets.
blanch in boiling water 3 - 5 minutes.
then plunge into ice water to stop cooking.
mix mayo, vinegar, sugar, onion.
add broccoli , cashews, raisins.
mix well & season with salt & pepper.

notes:
i didn't measure & it still turned out great.
also, i didn't have red wine vinegar,
so i used balsamic & apple cider vinegars.
