Skinny Broccoli Salad

This Skinny Broccoli Salad features chopped broccoli florets combined with diced red onion, sunflower seeds, raisins, and crisp crumbled bacon. A dressing of Greek yogurt, sugar, and white vinegar coats the salad for a lightly tangy and creamy finish. The mix of crunchy vegetables, nuts, and sweet raisins provides texture contrast, making the salad refreshing and satisfying.

Description

The salad starts by mixing fresh chopped broccoli, diced red onion, sunflower kernels, juicy raisins, and crisp bacon pieces. The Greek yogurt dressing, lightly sweetened with sugar and balanced with white vinegar, adds a creamy and tangy layer to the bite. The salad is tossed evenly ensuring the dressing coats each ingredient without overwhelming the natural flavors.

This salad is best served immediately to maintain the crispness of broccoli and the crunch of bacon and seeds. It can be refrigerated briefly but may require extra dressing to moisten if stored for later serving.
