Raw Vegetable Salad

This is a flavorful and crunchy vegetable salad tossed with peanuts and bacon bits.

Ingredients:
 6 slices bacon
 3 cups chopped broccoli
 3 cups chopped cauliflower
 3 cups chopped celery
 1 (10 ounce) package frozen green peas, thawed
 1 cup sweetened dried cranberries (such as Craisins®)
 1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
 1/4 cup white sugar
 2 tablespoons grated onion
 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
 1 teaspoon salt
 1 cup Spanish peanuts

Directions:
Place bacon in a large deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain bacon on a paper towel-lined plate; crumble.
Mix broccoli, cauliflower, celery, peas, and cranberries in a large bowl.
Whisk mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, sugar, onion, vinegar, and salt together in a bowl. Pour dressing over the salad; add nuts and bacon and toss well.
