Strawberry Broccoli Salad
Strawberry Broccoli Salad combines fresh broccoli florets with crisp Granny Smith apples, cubes of mildly sharp Colby jack cheese, and fresh strawberries. The dressing is a sweet and tangy mix of mayonnaise, sugar, lemon juice, vinegar, and poppy seeds, which coats the salad evenly. Toasted slivered almonds add crunch on top. This salad is vibrant, textured, and suitable for a light side dish.
