A refreshing and crunchy salad combining broccoli, cashews, and a tangy-sweet dressing.
Combine the broccoli, red onion, cashews, and raisins in a large mixing bowl.
Chop the broccoli into bite-sized pieces for easier mixing and eating.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
Ensure the sugar is fully dissolved in the dressing for a smoother texture.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss until evenly coated.
Use a gentle tossing motion to avoid breaking the broccoli florets.
Let the salad sit for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap to keep the salad fresh while it rests.
Serve the salad on a chilled serving dish for a refreshing presentation.
Garnish with a sprinkle of additional cashews for an extra crunch.
