Sweet and Sour Broccoli Salad

Greens are the #1 item missing from the typical American diet. The more vegetables and greens the better.

Yield: 6 Servings

Ingredients

  • 4 cups broccoli florets, cut into small pieces

  • ½ cup chopped onion

  • ¼ - 1/3 cup grapes or dried fruit (I used dried cranberries)

  • 1 cup red cabbage

  • 1 TBS olive oil

  • ¼ cup nuts of choice (I used sunflower seeds to reduce fat)

  • ½ cup red wine vinegar

  • ¼ cup honey

  • 2 TBS reduced sodium soy sauce (I used Tamari)

Instructions

  1. All items are chopped and mixed together for a quick and easy spring or summer salad!

Broccoli is in the cruciferous family and contains indoles which are effective in protecting against certain forms of cancer. It has a rich supply of vitamins and minerals.
