Ingredients
  

For the Salad:

  • 4 cups broccoli (chopped into bite-sized pieces)
  • 4 slices turkey bacon (cooked and crumbled)
  • cup onion, red (finely chopped)
  • ½ cup cranberries, dried (preferably unsweetened or apple juice-sweetened)
  • cup pumpkin seeds (otherwise known as pepitas)
  • ¼ cup feta cheese (crumbled)

For the Creamy Healthy Dressing:

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Salad Base
    In a large bowl, add the chopped broccoli, crumbled turkey bacon, red onion, cranberries, pumpkin seeds, and feta cheese.
  • Mix the Dressing
    In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey (or maple syrup), garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  • Combine & Toss
    Pour the dressing over the broccoli salad mixture. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
  • Chill & Serve
    For best flavor, refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
