Broccoli salad

Quite refreshing in the Summer
Servings: 4-6
Prep time: 20 minutes
Total time: 50 minutes
Ease of difficulty: Easy
Variations: I omitted peas because I don't like them
Source: Simply Recipes

1 tsp salt
5-6 cups fresh broccoli florets
1/2 cup toasted almond slivers
1/2 cup cooked, crumbled bacon
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1 cup fresh peas

1 cup mayo

Bring a large salted pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets. Cook 1-2 minutes. Drain the broccoli and immediately put into bowl of ice water to stop further cooking. Let cool and drain.
