Instructions
Wash and dry the broccoli florets. Chop them into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Dice the red bell pepper into small, evenly sized cubes. Add them to the bowl with the broccoli.
Peel the carrot, then use a box grater to shred it finely. Add the shredded carrot to the mixing bowl.
Finely dice the red onion until it reaches a quarter-cup measurement and add it to the vegetable mixture.
Sprinkle the raisins over the vegetables for a touch of sweetness.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the low-fat Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss everything thoroughly until evenly coated.
Optionally, sprinkle sunflower seeds on top for added crunch and texture.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Enjoy!
