I know it seems like all we eat at my house is sugar, but we really do eat real food. I'm not much of a meat and potatoes kinda girl. I l-o-v-e salads. I made this one for our family dinner at my parents'. Since a few people have allergies, I didn't include the almonds. I was going to put sunflower seeds in instead, but wasn't sure who would like that. So I just julienned a carrot instead. Thanks to Everybody Likes Sandwiches for this yummy, easy slaw/salad.
1 large head of broccoli
1/4 red onion, diced
1/4 c. roasted almonds, coarsely chopped
1/4 c. dried cranberries
2 T. Greek yogurt
2 T. mayonnaise
Juice of 1/2 lemon (or to taste)
Couple of dashes of hot sauce
Small squirt of honey
Salt & pepper to taste
Use a large knife to thinly chop up the broccoli into a rough slaw. Dump into a medium sized bowl along with the red onion, almonds, and cranberries. Put the remaining ingredients into a small jar with a lid and shake. Taste & adjust seasoning if necessary. Pour onto broccoli slaw and toss until everything is coated.
This looks really good and I love the fact that it has Greek Yogurt in it. My kids don't like how thick it is just to eat by itself but I love how good it is for you, so I have found myself using it in places where I might have used mayo or sour cream.
ReplyDeleteI love broccoli too!
Oh, this looks amazing and I can't wait to try it!! I love it when you share recipes on your blog. I haven't tried and single one that we did not like!! How are you doing???
ReplyDeleteI love broccoli salad! Your version looks delicious! I've never made it with Greek yogurt before.
ReplyDeleteI love this!
ReplyDeleteI've had something similar but your recipe looks so pretty and much tastier!
Yay, another Valerie recipe to try.
You are the best.
I make a very similar salad with raisins insteads of cranberries (since I am allergic). Lol. Good thing I wasn't there or you would have had one more allergy to deal with.
