4 c. raw, cut up broccoli, with some stems
1/2 c. chopped nuts
1/4 c. raisins (soaked)
1/2 c. chopped onion
1/2 lb. bacon, fried crisp and crumbled
3/4 c. Hellmann's mayonnaise
1/4 c. sugar
2 tsp. vinegar
1 sm. carrot, grated
1 can chopped water chestnuts
Celery seed, salt and pepper to taste

Add all together, except the dressing. Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and let set for a couple of hours, stirring frequently. Do not add the chestnuts until ready to serve. They will turn brown if left setting for awhile.
