Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt, or more to taste
  • 4 cups small diced broccoli florets
  • 4 cups small diced cauliflower florets
  • 8 oz bacon, about 8 slices, diced and sauteed until crisp and drained
  • 1 1/4 cups small cubed Colby Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion, rinsed under water and drained, if it's a mild one you can add a little more

Directions

  1. Whisk the dressing ingredients in a mid-size bowl until smooth, then cover the bowl and refrigerate it until you’re ready to assemble the salad.
  2. Place the salad ingredients in a large bowl. If you want a prettier finish, hold back about 1/4 of the bacon and red onion so you can scatter them over the top at the end.
  3. Add the dressing to the bowl and toss until everything is coated. For the best texture, serve within an hour after the dressing goes on.
