Place bacon in a deep skillet and cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Cool and crumble.Cut the broccoli into bite-size pieces and cut the onion into thin bite-size slices. Combine with the bacon, raisins, your favorite nuts and mix well.To prepare the dressing, mix the mayonnaise, sugar and vinegar together until smooth. Stir into the salad, let chill and serve.**Sometimes I will grate 2 carrots and add them to the salad. It helps with color.**
