For the Broccoli Salad:

  • 1 ½ pounds of fresh broccoli chopped into small, bite-sized florets
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1 large apple chopped into bite-size pieces
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice to coat the apple

For the Homemade Dressing:

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt full fat or low fat
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Apple: Chop the apple into bite-sized pieces and immediately toss them with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning.
  • Combine Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the bite-sized broccoli florets, fresh blueberries, chopped red onion, dried cranberries, sunflower seeds, and the lemon-coated apple pieces.
  • Make the Dressing: In a petite bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, and poppy seeds, whisking until the mixture is smooth and thoroughly blended.
  • Toss the Salad: Pour the dressing over the broccoli salad mixture and gently toss until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
  • Chill and Serve: For best flavor, refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend. Serve chilled.
