Honey-Mustard Broccoli Salad

This no-mayo, honey-mustard broccoli salad is a wonderful make-ahead salad as the vinaigrette marinates the flavors of this salad beautifully. It’s a hearty salad that travels well – great for potlucks or picnics!
Salad
broccoli florets, chopped | 1lb | |
almonds, slivered (*see recipe notes) | ½ cup | |
red onion, finely chopped | ½ cup | |
raisins | ⅓ cup |
Honey-Mustard Vinaigrette
olive oil | ⅓ cup | |
apple cider vinegar | 2 tbsp | |
Dijon mustard | 1 tbsp | |
honey (*see recipe notes) | 1 tbsp | |
garlic, minced | 1 clove | |
sea salt | a pinch |
Directions:
- Toast the slivered almonds in a skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden.
- Mix chopped broccoli, onion, toasted almonds, and raisins in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
- Combine dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until well blended.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and stir until all the broccoli is coated in the dressing. For best results, allow the salad to marinate for at least an hour in the fridge (I have a personal preference for marinating overnight).
- Serve.
- Salad will keep well in the fridge for 3-4 days, covered.
Recipe Notes:
- Vegan: Use maple syrup instead of honey.
- Nut-Free: Use sunflower seeds instead of almonds.
