Surprising Broccoli Salad Recipes

FAVORITE BROCCOLI SALAD

Steps:

• Toast the sunflower seeds: Pour the sunflower seeds into a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently (careful, they'll burn!), until the seeds are turning golden on the sides, about 5 minutes. Pour the toasted seeds into a large serving bowl.
• Add the chopped broccoli, onion, cheese and cranberries to the serving bowl. Set aside.
• In a 1-cup liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine all of the dressing ingredients (olive oil, vinegar, mustard, honey, garlic and salt). Whisk until the mixture is well blended.
• Pour the dressing over the salad and stir until all of the broccoli is lightly coated in dressing. I highly recommend letting the salad marinate for at least 20 minutes, or even overnight in the refrigerator.
• Divide the salad into individual bowls and serve. Leftovers will keep well for 3 to 4 days in the fridge, covered.

BROCCOLI SALAD WITH LIGHTER CREAMY DRESSING

Steps:

• Cut the florets into slices no thicker than 0.7 cm / 1/4" thick.
• Place in a bowl with remaining Salad ingredients.
• Mix Dressing well in a large bowl - use a whisk to ensure it's all well incorporated. It will be thin and pourable - see video for consistency.
• Pour all over Salad, toss well.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight (minimum 2 hours). Remove from fridge and bring to room temperature before serving.
