Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Rinse, drain and let the broccoli dry. Cut off the stalks, save for another use or discard, and then cut the florets into small bite-size pieces.
Step 3
Place the bacon on a baking sheet with sides and cook it for 10 to 15 minutes or until it is crisp and golden brown. Remove the bacon and place it on a paper towel to drain. Crumble it or cut it into small pieces.
Step 4
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half, or if they are large, cut them into quarters.
Step 5
Place the broccoli in a large bowl. Add the bacon, cranberries, cheese, cherry tomatoes and pecans. Toss to combine. Set aside.
Step 6
Combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
Step 7
Pour about half of the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients. Taste and add more dressing, a little at a time to suit your family's tastes.
Step 8
This salad can be served immediately, but this salad is best if covered and refrigerated for up to 24-hours before serving to allow the flavors to develop.
