Ingredients

• 4 cups broccoli florets
• 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
• 0.5 cup raisins
• 0.25 cup red onion, finely diced
• 0.5 cup shredded carrots
• 0.5 cup mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 cup sunflower seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the broccoli thoroughly and cut it into small, bite-sized florets if not already done. Place the florets into a large salad bowl.

Step 2

Add the pineapple chunks, raisins, finely diced red onion, and shredded carrots to the bowl with the broccoli.

Step 3

In a separate smaller bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and gently toss everything together until the salad is evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the salad to a container with a lid, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 6

Before serving, sprinkle the salad with sunflower seeds if desired for added crunch.

Step 7

Serve cold as a side dish or a light main course, and enjoy!
