Salad So Tasty Your Kids Won’t Know It Is Good For Them ;~)

Anytime you can make things ahead you help you feel less stressed and more prepared. Who doesn’t need that?

I love being able to know what we are having for meals because it also helps when you are shopping. Instead of going down the isles and hoping random groceries would fall into your cart, you can have a list and a plan.

This is what Jaclyn says about this salad.

This delicious Broccoli Apple Salad is one of the best ways you can enjoy fresh broccoli! Plus it’s packed with nutritious ingredients! I also made it lighter by substituting plain Greek yogurt for some of the mayonnaise.

Having your kids help you measure out ingredients and mix it up is a great way to spend time together.

Ingredients

Salad

• 4 cups small diced broccoli florets
• 2 small gala apples, cored and diced
• 1 cup walnuts
• 1 cup matchstick carrots, roughly chopped
• 1/2 cup golden raisins or dried cranberries
• 1/4 cup chopped red onion

• 3/4 cup plain greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup Hellman’s or Best Foods Mayonnaise (full fat)
• 1 1/2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 3 Tbsp honey
• Salt

Instructions

1. In a medium mixing bowl whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, vinegar, honey and season with salt to taste. Chill until ready to use.
2. In a salad bowl toss together broccoli, apples, walnuts, carrots, raisins or cranberries and red onion. Pour in dressing and toss until evenly coated.

Seriously, that is all you have to do!

Quick Tip: This is a great side dish for your next backyard barbecue.

Thanks again, for making this a lighter version of the heavy mayo dressing. I love that you used Greek yogurt.
