½ C golden raisins
2 T red wine vinegar
2 t yellow mustard
½ C canola oil

Steps:

If necessary, trim ends off the broccoli, use a vegetable peeler to peel the skin off the stalk. Slice the broccoli into thin slices & small florets. (There should be about 1 lb after trimming.) Place the broccoli in a large bowl and add sliced onions & raisins. Set aside. Combine vinegar, mustard, oil, sugar, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Add to the broccoli mixture & toss to combine. Cover & refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight for the flavors to blend. When ready to serve, toss again & garnish with pecans.
