Sweet Broccoli Salad

After searching and searching through recipes
trying to find one like how I make,
I gave up and decided to go ahead and post my own.
I make this broccoli recipe nice and sweet,
and it always disappears FAST wherever I take it!

Ingredients:
Salad ingredients:
2 heads fresh broccoli
1 medium onion, chopped
1 lb crisp cooked bacon, crumbled into small pieces
3/4 cup salted sunflower seeds
1 cup lightly packed golden raisins

Sauce or dressing:
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups Miracle Whip, can use mayo
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon orange juice

Directions:
Chop fresh broccoli (flowerets only) into small pieces,
place into medium-sized bowl.
Add in rest of salad ingredients, holding back
and reserving 1/4 cup of the bacon crumbles, and toss to mix.
In small bowl, whisk together sauce ingredients
until sugar dissolves and mixture is syrupy and smooth.
Pour/spoon over salad ingredients, and fold to mix and coat well.
Chill, stir, garnish with reserved bacon and serve.
