In a medium sauce pan, bring 4 cups of salted water to a boil.

While waiting for the water to boil, prepare a large bowl with ice water.

Add broccoli florets to the boiling water and cook until tender, 1 to 2.

Remove with a slotted spoon and place in the prepared bowl of ice water.

When cool, drain florets in a colander.

In a large bowl, combine broccoli, carrots, red onion, cranberries, nuts and bacon.

In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise and vinegar and season with salt and pepper.

Pour dressing over broccoli mixture and stir to combine.
