Creamy Broccoli Salad

I don’t know about you, but at this time of year, I crave fresh healthy food and this Creamy Broccoli Salad ticks all the boxes for me. Broccoli is one of the best ingredients for me. It is super healthy and full of vitamin C. People often think that oranges are the best natural form of vitamin C, but you might be surprised to know that broccoli contains more of this magic vitamin! 

This salad is quick and simple to make. Start by dicing the broccoli and cauliflower into small pieces and placing them in a large salad bowl. Toast almonds until golden and add them to the bowl along with the craisins. Make a simple dressing by mixing honey, mayo and lemon juice. Dress the salad and enjoy!

To make my version of Creamy Broccoli Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
