Along with that list of great broccoli dishes is Broccoli Salad! I think we’ve all had at least one version of broccoli salad, if not more. I decided to deviate from my usual Rainbow Broccoli Salad and add some fruity flavors with apples, cranberries and a squeeze of fresh lemon. The results were amazing and this Broccoli Cranberry Salad is packed with color, crunch, and flavor! This salad starts with fresh crisp broccoli and we add in green onions, crisp apple, and sweet dried cranberries. The poppy seed dressing in this recipe is easy to make and has a delicious fresh flavor. The lemon in the salad portion of this recipe will keep the apples from browning while the lemon juice in the dressing adds a fresh flavor element that you won’t want to miss.

While I make this recipe with no bacon, you can toss it with crispy chopped bacon or even cooked diced chicken breast to make it a meal. A sprinkle of feta is also a great addition to this salad! This Broccoli Cranberry Salad lasts for days in the fridge so it’s perfect to make for a potluck since it can be prepped the night before. The textures of this salad are fantastic. From crunchy to crisp to chewy, every bite is a treat for the taste buds!

Chop the apple and toss with 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice. Place in a bowl with all remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Toss with dressing until well mixed.
