I feel like broccoli gets neglected in our house, I like it but don’t love it. If I do happen to make it I roast it but I figured I needed a little more broccoli would be good for me. And even better in a salad.
One of those salads that you make for a side and use for lunches for a day or two. Easy for during the week. While the title says creamy, this is not mayo based. Greek yogurt, feta, lime juice and olive oil. Sure there’s a little fat in there but it’s at least better for you that mayo.
Sweetness from the cranberries and a bit of crunch from the sunflower seeds. Chill it for a few hours and it’s even better.
