Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.5 cup slivered almonds
- 4 strips bacon
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Begin by cooking the bacon. Place the strips in a skillet over medium heat and cook until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease, then crumble into small pieces. Set aside.
Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets. Cut them into small, bite-sized pieces, if not already done. Add to a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the red onion and add it to the bowl with the broccoli.
Add the dried cranberries and slivered almonds to the bowl as well.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the sour cream, mayonnaise, sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss everything together until evenly coated.
Add the crumbled bacon to the salad and gently mix until just combined.
Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve chilled as a side dish or enjoy as a light and refreshing meal.
