Crunchy Broccoli Salad image

I usually make this at Christmas. When made with red bell peppers, it has a nice green, red, and white color. This sweet and crunchy salad is sometimes it's best the day after being made.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the dressing.

I'm not a huge fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt in the dressing instead. It worked out great! The dressing was still creamy and flavorful, but it was much lighter.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover broccoli. I usually have a few florets left over after I've made a stir-fry or roasted broccoli. This salad is a great way to use them up and avoid food waste.

I love the addition of the sunflower seeds to this salad. They add a nice crunch and nutty flavor.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I usually make it the night before and let it chill in the fridge overnight. The flavors meld together even more that way.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this salad. I'm not usually a fan of broccoli, but the dressing in this recipe really made it shine. I will definitely be making this again.

This salad is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. It's packed with broccoli, carrots, and celery. The dressing is light and flavorful, and it doesn't overpower the vegetables.
