Ingredients
Broccoli Salad:
- 6 cups broccoli florets 2 large heads, chopped
- 1/3 cup red onion finely chopped
- ½ cup raw or roasted sunflower seeds
- 4 to 8 strips thick cut bacon cooked and chopped*
- ¾ cup dried cranberries or raisins
For the Dressing:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup plain greek yogurt 1 (5.3-oz. container)**
- 3 Tbsp pure maple syrup***
- ⅓ cup rice vinegar apple cider vinegar, or lemon juice
- ¾ tsp sea salt to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the chopped broccoli, red onion, sunflower seeds, dried cranberries, and cooked chopped bacon.
- Whisk together the ingredients for the dressing in a small bowl until creamy and well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the broccoli salad and toss until everything is well-coated in dressing. At first it may seem like there is too much dressing, but the broccoli will absorb the dressing as it sits.
- For the best results, refrigerate the broccoli salad for at least one hour before serving it with your main dish and other side dishes.
Notes
- *Adjust the amount of bacon to your personal taste. You can also omit the bacon for a vegetarian version of the recipe.
- **Replace the Greek yogurt with more mayonnaise if you prefer.
- ***Use cane sugar instead of pure maple syrup as a substitution.
