Directions

Step 1

Cook the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 7-10 minutes. Remove and place on paper towels to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces and set aside.

Finely dice the red onion and add it to the bowl with the broccoli.

Step 4

Add the dried cranberries and sunflower seeds to the bowl, mixing well to combine.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss gently to ensure everything is evenly coated.

Step 7

Add the crumbled bacon to the salad and give it a final toss.

Step 8

For best results, cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Serve chilled and enjoy this fresh and tangy French Camp Broccoli Salad!
