- 4 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ½ cup red onion, finely chopped
- ½ cup pecans, chopped (optional)
- ½ cup dried cranberries (optional)
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Wash the broccoli florets thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped red onion, and pecans and cranberries if you’re using them.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss everything together gently until well coated.
- Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, though longer chilling is even better.
- Before serving, give the salad a quick stir to redistribute the dressing, and adjust seasoning if necessary.
