Low-Carb Bacon & Cheese Broccoli Salad

Step 1 In a small jar mix together the dressing ingredients: mayonnaise, white vinegar, Swerve and salt. Set aside.

Step 2To cook the bacon, preheat the oven to 190 °C/ 375 °F. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Lay the bacon strips out flat on the baking paper, leaving space so they don't overlap. Place the tray in the oven and cook for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown. The time depends on the thickness of the bacon slices.

Step 3When done, remove from the oven and set aside to cool down and break or slice into small pieces. You can discard or reserve the bacon grease for another use.

Step 4 In a large bowl combine the broccoli, crumbled bacon, onion, and cheese. Pour the dressing over the broccoli and toss to coat.
Note: If you don't like raw broccoli, lightly steam or boil the florets for 2-3 minutes. When cooked, place in ice water and drain.

Step 5Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Step 6Store covered and in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
