LIGHTENED-UP CREAMY BROCCOLI SALAD
Healthy eating is about moderation! Two strips of bacon are all you need for a little indulgence that goes a long way flavor-wise. Buy the best quality bacon you can, nitrate-free if possible--it'll have tons of flavor and really punch up this healthy take on a classic side dish.

Steps:
- Combine the ice cubes, onions and 1 cup water in a small bowl. Let the onions soak for 10 minutes while preparing the rest of the salad, then drain and pat dry.
- Cook the bacon in a small nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until crispy, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain, reserving 1 teaspoon drippings for the dressing. Finely chop the bacon strips and reserve.
- Whisk the buttermilk, sour cream, lemon zest and juice, reserved bacon drippings, 3/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl. Add the broccoli, onions and golden raisins to the dressing. Toss well, cover and chill for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
- Before serving, toss well and season with additional salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving dish and top with the chopped bacon and sunflower seeds.
LIGHT BROCCOLI SALAD
Sometimes a party salad just doesn't do it without all the fixin's! Therefore, this broccoli salad still includes cheddar and bacon, but is made lighter to greatly reduce the guilt. You and your party guests won't know the difference!

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 425 (if cooking bacon in the oven, instructions will include this method).
- Line the lower pan of a broiling pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup. Place bacon on upper pan. Once oven is preheated, bake bacon on center rack for 20-30 minutes until edges are crispy. Time usually varies depending on thickness of your bacon. Set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce in a small bowl. Mix together plain nonfat Greek yogurt, mayo, lemon zest, lemon juice, spicy mustard, honey, salt, and pepper.
- In a large bowl, add salad ingredients: broccoli florets, diced red onion, julienned carrots, cranberries, sunflower seeds, and grated cheddar.
- When bacon has cooled, roughly chop or crumble into bits and add to the large bowl of salad.
- Add the dressing to the salad and stir to combine. Can be made a day ahead of time and stored for a couple additional days. Enjoy!
