I was craving a fresh and crunchy broccoli salad, but I wanted to make some changes that would cut back on the fat, calories and added sugar. I also have to admit, I am not a big fan of imitation bacon, used in some preparations, so I wanted to use just enough crispy center cut bacon to give it great flavor.
