Instructions

  1. Creating the Broccoli and Apple Chopped Salad is simple if you follow these easy steps:
  2. Rinse and chop the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces.

  4. If using whole carrots, shred them using a box grater or food processor.

  6. In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, apple, shredded carrots, red onion, dried cranberries or raisins, and nuts if using.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt or mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey or maple syrup, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  8. Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
  9. If using, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top and give it another light toss.
  10. Taste the salad and adjust seasoning or sweetness as desired.
  11. For best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for about 15-30 minutes before serving.
