Tonight's trashy eats...

Tonight's dinner was spaghetti and steamed broccoli. That's not the
trashy part.

Anyone familiar with that broccoli salad they serve at some salad-bar
places? The one with mayo and raisins and bacon and onions (and maybe
sunflower seeds or something)?

Well, all my bacon is in the freezer, so I fried up a little onion in
some bacon grease and added it to chopped cooked broccoli, some mayo,
and some raisins.

Damn, this shit is good. My arteries are probably screaming for mercy,
but damn.

That style of broccoli salad supposedly had its roots in Amish country, and
a particularly good recipe for it is in one of Marcia Adams' Amish
cookbooks. I've always liked it, though it's not something I would dare
eat on a regular basis. :-)
