Last year, I looked over<br />

an Easter spread and<br />

counted twelve different<br />

dishes that had either a<br />

cheese or mayonnaise as<br />

their base. I love these<br />

staples as much as the<br />

next person (looking at<br />

my waistline, you might<br />

argue that I love them<br />

more than most!), but<br />

Easter<br />

Broccoli<br />

Salad<br />

By Krista Messic<br />

I began to think about what I could make that would be different, flavorful,<br />

fresh, and a little less calorie-packed. I think this dish is just the ticket. I hope<br />

you enjoy!<br />

Salad Ingredients:<br />

24 oz. broccoli florets<br />

1 pint fresh blueberries<br />

6 oz. fresh raspberries<br />

1 Lg. Red Delicious apple<br />

1 Lg. Granny Smith apple<br />

4 oz. dried cranberries<br />

1/3 c. finely chopped red onion<br />

1/4 c. hulled sunflower seeds<br />

1 1/2 Tbsp. lemon Juice<br />

Dressing Ingredients:<br />

12 oz. fat-free Greek yogurt<br />

1/3 c. honey<br />

1 Tbsp. lemon juice<br />

2 tsp. apple cider vinegar<br />

1 Tbsp. water<br />

1 Tbsp. poppy seeds<br />

Salt, to taste<br />

Bringing it All Together<br />

1. Lightly steam broccoli florets to a bright<br />

green, but crisp texture. Rinse in cold water,<br />

drain, and lay out on paper towels to dry.<br />

2. Place dry broccoli, blueberries, raspberries,<br />

onion, cranberries, and sunflower seeds in a<br />

large bowl.<br />

3. Chop the apples into bite-sized pieces and<br />

toss in the lemon juice. Drain and add apples<br />

to the large bowl.<br />

4. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the dressing<br />

ingredients. Pour the dressing over the salad<br />

and toss gently to combine. Refrigerate for an<br />

hour and then serve.<br />
