Broccoli in Creamy Lemon Dressing
I always thought I can only eat cooked broccoli and I was always baffled by how some people can eat it raw, until I tried Souplantation's broccoli salad. Ever since then, I have always come back for this salad.
But why pay for buffet when all I want is this? So here's my own version of their salad. The difference is that Souplantaion's salad is very sweet for me, so I adjusted the sugar to my preference. Also, feel free to substitute...Souplantation used sunflower seeds, but I used walnuts. If you don't have cranberries, I imagine it would taste good with raisins too. -GG-
Ingredients:
Serves 1
1 medium head of broccoli
1 tablespoon chopped red onions
1 tablespoon dried cranberries
1 tablespoon chopped walnuts
1/4 cup whipping cream
3/4 teaspoon lemon juice
about 1 teaspoon sugar or to taste
a dash or two of ground black or white pepper
Procedure:
1. Wash the broccoli thoroughly. Cut up into small florets.
2. Combine whipping cream, lemon juice sugar and pepper. The whipping cream will thicken to a salad dressing consistency when the lemon juice is added.
3. Toss the broccoli, red onions, nuts, cranberries and dressing together. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
