Amanda's Broccoli Salad

My younger sister, Amanda has always been a good cook.  She and my other younger sister, Sara both learned to cook with my mom.  Me on the other hand?  I wasn't interested so I didn't actually learn to cook until I was married!! I was 25!!! I know, crazy, right?  I'm loving it now!!

So anyway, Amanda has some delicious recipes and we always hope she brings certain ones to family gatherings.  Here's one of my favorites!  Broccoli salad!  She created this by combining a few different broccoli salad recipes and making it into something she loved.  This is soooo good!  Last night we had it with grilled steak, grilled veggies, and sweet potato fries. Delicious!
