I found the basic recipe on another site and tweeked it to my own liking. Went over really well at a gathering over the weekend. Enjoy
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets shopping list
- 4 cups cauliflower florets shopping list
- 1 cup dried cranberries shopping list
- 2 "red" apples, diced (I used fuji apples) shopping list
- 2 granny smith apples, diced shopping list
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced shopping list
- 1 pound maple flavored bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled shopping list
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice, divided shopping list
- 1 cup mayonnaise (can use "light" mayo if desired) shopping list
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup shopping list
How to make it
- Blanch broccoli and cauliflower in boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Plunge into a boil of ice water to stop cooking process. (You can skip this step if you want, but I find it takes some of the bitterness out of the vegetables.)
- Drain vegetables and place in large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice to diced apple to prevent browning. Add apples, cranberries, green onion and bacon and toss to combine.
- Combine mayonnaise, remaining 3 tablespoons lemon juice and maple syrup until smooth. Pour over salad.
- Gently stir. Cover and chill at least one hour.
