Ingredients
- 8 lices center cut bacon
- 1 large head broccoli florets (sliced into bite-sized pieces)
- ⅓ cup diced red onion
- ½ cup dried unsweetened cranberries
- ½ cup shelled raw sunflower seeds
- ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese
- ½ cup mayonnaise (I used Hellman's Light)
- ¼ cup plain fat free Greek yogurt (dairy-or dairy-free)
Instructions
- Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy and browned, about 4 minutes on each side.
- If you prefer to bake it, bake on a sheet pan in a preheated 400°F oven to (200°C) 15 to 20 minutes, until crispy
- Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool. Chop or crumble.
- While the bacon is cooking, in a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets, red onion, dried cranberries, sunflower seeds, and goat cheese.
- In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise and yogurt.
- Add the bacon and dressing to the mixing bowl and toss to combine.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Dairy Free Option: omit the goat cheese and use dairy free yogurt.
- Refrigerate up to 4 days.
