Brocolli, Raisin & Toasted Pine Nut Salad

• 3 heads Brocolli
• 1/8 c. chopped Red Onion
• 1/2 c. toasted Pine Nuts
• 1 c. Mayonaisse
• 2 t. Dijon Mustard
• 3 T. Sugar
• 1/2 c. Yellow (or regular) Raisins

1. Chop brocolli heads into pieces about 2" each.
2. Boil a large pot of water. When boiling, drop brocolli in and blanch for about 3 minutes. This makes the brocolli a vibrant green color and softens it a bit. DON'T cook it!
3. Mix the rest of the ingredients together. Sauce will be thick and should be sweet with some tang. Adjust to your taste. Even though brocolli isn't wet, sauce will still thin when added to it.
4. Drain and chill brocolli (can put ice in strainer with the cooked brocolli to cool it down quickly).
5. Mix chilled brocolli and sauce in a bowl.
