Ingredients

SALAD:

4 cups broccoli florets about 2 medium heads
1/2 cup carrots shredded
1/4 cup red onion finely diced
2 large Gala apples unpeeled and chopped (I use either Gala or Fuji apples)
1/2 cup pecans coarsely chopped
1/2 cup dried cranberries

YOGURT DRESSING:

1 cup plain Greek yogurt or use Icelandic yogurt
2 tbsp. lemon juice
2 tbsp. granulated sugar or honey, (or more if a sweeter dressing is preferred)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. ground black pepper

In a large bowl combine broccoli with all other salad ingredients.

YOGURT DRESSING:

Whisk dressing ingredients and pour over top of salad.
Toss salad with dressing to coat.
Chill until ready to serve.

Notes

NOTE: I increased the sugar from the original recipe but this is still not a sweet salad dressing. Add additional sugar or honey if you prefer a sweeter dressing.
