Broccoli Salad with Homemade Ranch Dressing

You are what you eat. If that’s the case, then I want to eat foods that make me feel good and let my radiance shine from the inside out. Fresh vegetables are the way to go. They are in abundance at local farmers’ markets and stands and I’m in my glory picking up lots of deliciousness to serve my family. One of my favourite salads to make (and eat) is Broccoli Salad. It’s always a hit at our summer family barbecues and often I’ll get my family requesting that I bring a batch with me.

The traditional dressing for this type of salad is made with white sugar but I’ve discovered another dressing that tastes even better and is healthier too! I modified a recipe for Ranch dressing I found on DrinkSilk.ca and was so pleased with how it turned out. This dressing would be great on any tossed salad, but it’s utterly divine on my Broccoli Salad. Your tastebuds will love it!
