Print Recipe

A refreshing and nutritious salad packed with crunchy broccoli, sweet Honeycrisp apples, and delightful dried cranberries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups broccoli florets, chopped
  • 1 large Honeycrisp apple, diced
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (optional)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Salad: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped broccoli, diced Honeycrisp apple, dried cranberries, nuts, red onion, and cheddar cheese if you’re using it. Give it a gentle toss to mix everything together nicely.
  2. Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

  4. Serve & Enjoy: Just before serving, give the salad one last toss. Serve it chilled, and savor every crisp, creamy bite!
