Ingredients

  • 8 cups broccoli florets, trimmed
  • cups ranch dressing
  • 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 cups French fried onions
  • 1 cup diced bacon or bacon bits
  • ½ cup green onions, sliced
  • ¼ cup pickled jalapenos

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix broccoli, green onions, and ranch together.
  • Fold in the remaining ingredients. Stir to combine.
  • Serve cold.

Notes

  • Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets for easier serving.
  • Use freshly shredded cheddar cheese for the best flavor.
  • Add the French fried onions just before serving if you prefer them extra-crispy.
  • Cook your own bacon for maximum flavor.
  • Let the salad chill before serving so the flavors have time to blend together.
