A deliciously healthy salad featuring crunchy broccoli, cauliflower, and a variety of other ingredients, perfect for a refreshing side dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh broccoli florets, chopped
  • 1 cup cauliflower florets, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded carrots

  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 cup raisins or dried cranberries
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, red onion, bacon, sunflower seeds, and raisins. Toss gently to mix all the ingredients evenly.

  3. Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and stir until all the ingredients are well coated.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
