Notes
- Make sure that you dry the broccoli pieces really well to prevent a soggy salad. Dry by giving them a few sharp flicks while holding the stem, then placing them on top of an absorbent cloth or paper towels for a few minutes. Or you can use a salad spinner if you have one.
- Chop the broccoli florets into small bite-sized pieces. This will ensure that they are coated with more dressing making them super flavorful. Plus, smaller pieces of broccoli mean more space in a mouthful for the berries and crunchies.
- Toss the salad with the dressing at least 10 minutes before serving them. This will give the broccoli time to absorb the flavors but not lose the crunchiness.
- When making ahead, do not add the nuts and seeds yet. Toss them right before serving to make sure they do not lose their crunchiness.
