Broccoli Apple Salad



What you need,

For the dressing,
¼ cup mayo
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp. lemon juice
½ tbsp. granulated sugar
Salt & Pepper to taste

For the salad,
2 cups broccoli florets cut into small pieces
¼ cup shredded carrot
1 tbsp. finely diced red onion
1 large apple, cored, quartered & sliced
¼ cup pecans, toasted
¼ cup dried cranberries

In a small bowl, stir together the mayo, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, sugar and salt and pepper. You can make the dressing a day ahead if you like, just cover in plastic wrap and keep it in the fridge.

In a large bowl, toss together the broccoli, carrot, red onion, apple and cranberries.  Pour over the dressing and toss well to coat.  Stir in the toasted pecans.

Let the salad sit in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving. This will give the dressing a chance to soak into the broccoli.

Serve cold.
