Packed with crunchy broccoli florets, chewy raisins and craisins, nutty sunflower seeds, and a pop of zesty red onion, this vibrant salad balances sweet and savory flavors effortlessly. The creamy dressing, made with a tangy blend of mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, and a hint of honey, ties everything together for a dish that's as nutritious as it is delicious. Ready in just 15 minutes and perfect for potlucks, barbecues, or meal prep, this no-cook salad is a healthy crowd-pleaser with a colorful twist.
Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli. Chop the broccoli into small, bite-sized florets and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Add the raisins, dried cranberries (craisins), finely chopped red onion, and sunflower seeds to the bowl with the broccoli. Toss gently to combine.
In a small separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined. This will be your dressing.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss everything together until the salad is fully coated in the dressing.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together (optional but recommended).
Before serving, give the salad a final stir and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed. Enjoy!
