Broccoli Salad with Homemade Dressing

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees (broiler)

Step 2

Combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, sour cream, red wine vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix well. Set aside in fridge

Step 3

Rinse and drain broccoli florets. Lay out in single layer on a clean dish towel for 10 minutes

Step 4

Transfer broccoli to a foil-lined baking sheet and broil for 10 minutes. Transfer broccoli to a large bowl, and put into fridge to cool

Step 5

In large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until it reaches desired doneness. Transfer to paper towels to drain

Step 6

Add cranberries, sunflower seeds, bacon and cheese to broccoli, and toss together

Step 7

Add dressing 2 Tablespoons at a time, and mix well each time. The recipe makes a generous amount of dressing. It's always better to UNDER dress the salad, and allow people to add more dressing if they want.
