Honey Mustard Broccoli Salad
Description
This salad features broccoli florets chopped into small pieces, which provide a crunchy, fresh vegetable base. Red onion adds a sharp bite, while slivered almonds contribute texture and nuttiness, and dried cranberries offer bursts of sweetness. The dressing blends creamy mayonnaise with two types of mustard, balanced by honey's sweetness and a touch of apple cider vinegar for acidity, seasoned with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper.
The ingredients are tossed with a portion of the dressing, allowing the broccoli and mix-ins to be evenly coated without overwhelming the natural flavors. The salad can be served immediately or refrigerated to meld flavors further. Its combination of crunchy vegetables, sweet fruit, and tangy dressing makes it suitable as a side for grilled meats, picnics, or potlucks.
