Easy Amish Broccoli Cauliflower Salad in Creamy Dressing



Ingredients

Salad

  • 8 oz broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 8 oz cauliflower florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 oz red bell pepper (1/2 of a pepper), small dice
  • 4 oz cheddar cheese, cubed
  • 1/3 pound bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
  • 2 tbsp purple onion (or green onion)

Dressing

  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 3/4 cup sour cream (or full-fat Greek yogurt)
  • 2 tbsp Sukrin Melis Icing Sugar (or Swerve Confectioners or stevia to taste)*
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Instructions

Preparation

  • Dice bacon and cook it in a frying pan over medium heat until crisp, about 6 minutes. Drain. (If serving the salad the next day, store separately.) 
  • Meanwhile, wash and chop the vegetables and place into a large bowl. If serving the salad the next day, cover and refrigerate.
  • Mix the ingredients for the dressing in a medium bowl and taste to adjust the seasoning. Cover and refrigerate if not using right away.

Assemble

  • Toss the salad ingredients with the broccoli then stir in the dressing. (I use less dressing than the recipe makes - as shown in the photos, but you may want to use it all.) Serve. 
  • Refrigerate any leftovers up to 5 days. Makes 7 cups at 1 cup per serving.
