A refreshing salad that combines crunchy Honeycrisp apples and bright broccoli florets with a creamy dressing, perfect for summer gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium Honeycrisp apples, diced
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup toasted almonds or walnuts
  • 1/2 cup cream or plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Chop the broccoli into small, even florets and set them aside.
  2. Dice the Honeycrisp apples into bite-sized pieces. Toss them with a little lemon juice to prevent browning.
  3. Roughly chop or slice the nuts; if using whole nuts, toast them in a dry skillet for 2 to 4 minutes, then cool.
  4. Combine the broccoli, apples, and nuts in a mixing bowl.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together cream or yogurt, honey, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  6. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat everything evenly. Serve immediately, or chill for 20 to 30 minutes to meld flavors.

Notes

For a lighter dressing, use all yogurt. To make it nut-free, substitute nuts with seeds but toast them first. Best served chilled or at room temperature.
