Instructions:
1. Prepare the Salad Base: Start by combining the chopped broccoli florets, diced apples, finely chopped red onion, dried cranberries or raisins, and sliced almonds or chopped walnuts (if using) in a large mixing bowl. Toss everything together until evenly distributed.
2. Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey or maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar until smooth and well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the broccoli, apple, and onion mixture, using a spatula or spoon to gently toss and coat all the ingredients in the creamy dressing. Make sure everything is evenly coated for maximum flavor in every bite.
4. Chill and Serve: Once dressed, cover the salad bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the salad to chill. This also gives the broccoli a chance to soften slightly while still retaining its crispness.
5. Garnish and Enjoy: Before serving, give the Broccoli Apple Salad a final toss to ensure everything is well mixed. Garnish with additional sliced almonds or chopped walnuts, if desired, for an extra crunch and visual appeal. Serve chilled and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures.
Adding Your Own Twist:
Feel free to customize the Broccoli Apple Salad to suit your taste preferences. Experiment with different types of nuts, such as pecans or pistachios, for added variety. You can also toss in some shredded carrots or diced celery for extra color and crunch. The possibilities are endless, so don’t be afraid to get creative!
