The following are the reactions I envision when a group of people are asked the following questions:
Who Loves Feta Cheese? YAY!!!
Who Loves Candied Walnuts? YIPPEE!
Who Loves Creamy Greek Salad Dressing? Yum!
Who Loves Broccoli? No response except low grumbles from the audience.
We all know how incredible broccoli is for us, and we all know that our bodies would love it if we consumed more of this vitamin packed veggie. However, the taste and the smell are very hard to take for most people. The good news is that there are many ways to make this veggie super delicious and something you look forward to eating at least a few times a week.
The first three ingredients mentioned above are all included in this salad, and you can add a few more as you see fit. With the base of these ingredients, you will be set for a delicious salad.
Simple Recipe
Broccoli
Feta Cheese
Candied Walnuts (I buy mine from Trader Joe’s)
Greek Goddess Dressing (Trader Joe’s)
Just throw these ingredients together in a bowl and toss until mixed evenly. When I first started making this salad about a year ago, I always used a sweet poppyseed dressing, which also works very well. I felt more like a savory taste today, so I used the Greek Goddess dressing, and it was fabulous.
You can also toss in some craisins for a sweet touch.
Every time I make this salad, I wonder why I’m not tossing this together more often. Try it. I think you’ll like it a lot.
