Description

A crisp, creamy broccoli salad loaded with cauliflower, smoky turkey, Colby Jack cheese, and a sweet-tangy homemade dressing. Perfect for potlucks, picnics, barbecues, or an easy family side dish.


Ingredients

3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup honey

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

4 cups chopped broccoli florets

4 cups chopped cauliflower florets

12 slices cooked turkey, crumbled

8 ounces Colby Jack cheese, cubed

1 red onion, finely chopped


Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets, cauliflower florets, half of the crumbled turkey, cubed Colby Jack cheese, and chopped red onion.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss thoroughly until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Sprinkle the remaining crumbled turkey over the top of the salad.
  5. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

Add sunflower seeds, chopped almonds, or pecans for extra crunch.

Mix in dried cranberries or diced apples for a sweet contrast.

Substitute cheddar cheese for Colby Jack if desired.

Green onions can be used instead of red onion for a milder flavor.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Stir before serving leftovers and add a spoonful of yogurt or mayonnaise if needed.
