Ingredients

  • 4 cups broccoli , about 1 bunch, cut into small florets
  • ¼ cup red onion chopped
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds
  • ½ cup craisins
  • ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 3-4 slices bacon cooked and crispy, chopped
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 6 grinds fresh black pepper

Dressing

  • 2 Tablespoons plain yogurt (or sub mayo or sour cream)
  • 1 Tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey

Instructions

  • Cook bacon on a sheet pan in the oven at 400° for about 20 minutes, flip it and check on it until it is perfectly crispy but not burnt. Remove to a plate with a paper towel and chop.
  • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and whisk the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl. Add dressing to the salad, toss well and serve or refrigerate.

Notes

  • Storage - This broccoli salad can be made up to a day in advance and leftovers can be eaten within the next 2 days.
  • The stalk of the broccoli can be used.  Just cut off the very bottom, peel away the tough skin with a knife and chop the stalk for the salad.
  • You can cook the whole package of bacon and chop up the extra to freeze.  Throw it in pasta, add it to this Chopped Dinner Salad, or toss it in eggs.
