- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Serve immediately or cover and chill in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Blanched Broccoli: If you want softer broccoli pieces, you can blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 1 minute. Do not blanch longer than a minute or the broccoli will be too soft.

- More vegetables: Chopped cauliflower, sliced red cabbage or carrots.
- Nuts or seeds: Sunflower seeds, chopped walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sliced almonds.
- Dried fruit: Raisins, dried cherries or chopped dates.
