_ Ingredients
0.5 cup sunflower seeds
4 lbs broccoli
10 scallions chopped into
0.5 cup craisins
1.5 tbsp white balsamic vinegar
tbsp sugar
0.5 cup mayonnaise
_ Instructions
Remove stems from the broccoli heads and chop them into smaller
bite-size florets. Pour 1/2 cup of water into a medium pot and bring
to a boil. Add broccoli pieces to the pot and cover. Steam the broccoli
for 4-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Remove broccoli pieces from the pot with a slotted spoon and place them on two
layers of paper towel, allow them to drain and cool completely.
Toast the sunflower seeds in a skillet over medium heat until lightly browned.
Place the broccoli florets, craisins, scallions, and toasted sunflower seeds in a
large mixing bowl.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, and sugar. Add
sugar (or preferred sweetener) last, adding a teaspoon at a time until the dressing
is sweet enough for your taste.
Pour dressing over the broccoli mixture. Toss to coat the broccoli evenly with the
dressing and thoroughly mix all ingredients.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to marinate. Flavors improve with
time. Serve chilled.
