Ingredients
- 4 cups Fresh broccoli
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Cooked and crumbled bacon
- 0.25 cup Sunflower seeds
- 0.75 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1.5 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Wash the broccoli thoroughly and pat dry. Cut the broccoli into small bite-sized florets and set them aside in a large mixing bowl.
Dice the red onion into small pieces and add it to the bowl with the broccoli.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and sunflower seeds to the bowl with the broccoli and onion.
In a separate small mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and stir well to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the salad to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give the salad a final stir to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled and enjoy!
