Categories     side dishes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 Tbsp red wine vinegar (or champagne vinegar)
1 Tbsp shallot (finely minced )
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tsp fresh parsley (finely chopped )
1 large head of broccoli
2 Tbsp sunflower seeds (toasted)
1/2 cup cranberries (dried)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (grated or shaved )
black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir vinegar, shallot and salt together then allow it to sit for 10 minutes-allowing the shallot to soak in the vinegar will mellow the harsh flavor of the shallot. After 10 minutes, whisk in the oil and chopped parsley. Set the vinaigrette aside until the salad ingredients have been prepared.
  • Rinse the broccoli under cool water and remove as much water as possible by blotting with a paper towel. Remove the florets from the head of broccoli then cut them into small pieces and place in a medium-sized mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Next peel the tough outer skin of the broccoli stems using a vegetable peeler or paring knife. Slice the stems thinly then chop into bite-sized pieces. Add the stem pieces in with the florets-you should have about 5-6 cups of finely chopped broccoli.
  • Add the toasted sunflower seeds and dried cranberries in with the broccoli, then pour the vinaigrette over the mixture. Toss to coat evenly. Add Parmesan cheese, black pepper to taste and toss to combine. Enjoy!

BROCCOLI SALAD (COOKING LIGHT)



Broccoli Salad (Cooking Light) image

This rivals any of the fuller fat versions I've ever had. If you really need bacon in your broccoli salad then just use turkey bacon, but I honestly think it's delicious without.

A LIGHTER BROCCOLI SALAD



A Lighter Broccoli Salad image

I LOOOVE broccoli salad, but have always had a little trouble feeling good about eating it since it has SO many calories! So I took a classic recipe and made it just a little lighter. It's still not as healthy as eating plain ol' broccoli, but it is DELICIOUS! I love to have this in the fridge to grab whenever I get a craving for a snack :)
