If you're making this recipe as a side salad and you're concerned about left-overs, only add the dressing to the portion that you'll use today. The remaining (undressed) salad will stay crisp in the fridge for 3-5 days. |
Ingredients: |
|
1 bunch |
|
fresh broccoli |
|
1 bag (8 oz.) |
|
julienne (matchstick) carrots |
|
3/4 c. |
|
raisins, plumped |
|
1/2 c. |
|
sunflower seeds |
|
1 c. |
|
white cheese crumbles (or curds) |
|
1/2 c. |
|
french dressing |
Directions: |
|
To plump raisins, cover raisins with water in a small microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes. Set aside.
Rinse and chop broccoli.
Drain raisins.
Toss broccoli, carrots, plumped raisins, sunflower seeds, cheese, and french dressing in a large bowl. Serve immediately.
Hint: to turn this salad into a complete meal, just add some cooked diced chicken! Of course, then this recipe will only serve 4 people.
