Broccoli Salad with Cheese and Bacon (Recipe 2 of 125)

I'm trying to plan better for my weekly lunches. AND I need to eat more broccoli (blood thinner stuff). So when this recipe showed up in the random selection I figured it was perfect. 

I didn't change much with this recipe. I couldn't find no sugar bacon, so I just went with what I had. I did include the onion, but made it a red onion (Side Note: did you know if you cut a red onion in half and let it soak in a bowl of cold water for 15-30 minutes, it take out all the "sting" from the red onion?)

I also didn't cook my broccoli before. I like raw broccoli and as it sits in the dressing it'll get "soft".
