Directions for Broccoli Salad Recipe
-
Chop the broccoli florets into ½-inch pieces and any remaining stems into ¼-inch dice.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, mayo, mustard, maple syrup, garlic, and salt. Now, add the broccoli, onions, and cranberries and toss to coat.
-
Place the almonds and pepitas on the baking sheet, toss with the tamari, maple syrup, smoked paprika, and spread into a thin layer—Bake for 10 to 14 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes (they’ll get crispier as they sit).
-
Toss the almonds and pepitas into the salad, reserving a few to sprinkle on top. Adjust the taste if necessary and serve.
