Ingredients for Broccoli Salad

This salad has a shortlist of ingredients but each is important for that It’s sweet, tart, and crisp flavor profile.

  • Broccoli – we used 2 medium heads or about 1 lb of fresh broccoli.
  • Carrot – should be peeled and grated or sliced on a julienne slicer
  • Apple – any crisp, sweet apple will work
  • Onion – use 1/4 cup finely chopped. Yellow, sweet onion or red onion will work
  • Walnuts – toast on a skillet until fragrant and golden. You can substitute with pecans
  • Dried Cranberries – craisins add a sweet tangy bite to the salad. You can substitute it with raisins.

The Best Creamy Dressing

This creamy lemon salad dressing combines real mayonnaise, sour cream, fresh squeezed lemon juice, sugar salt, and pepper. The sour cream lightens up this creamy dressing and the lemon adds a vibrant fresh flavor.

Common Questions

Can you eat raw broccoli?

It isn’t necessary at all to cook the broccoli in this salad and broccoli eaten raw is more nutritious. We also love the crunchiness and vibrant color it adds to the salad. When the florets are cut small, they are easy to chew and so satisfying!

Can I cook the broccoli?

Some readers have shared good results with blanch the broccoli to soften it a bit. If you blanch the broccoli, just be sure it is chilled and patted dry before adding to the salad.

Can I use broccoli stems in salad?

Broccoli stems can be used in salad and we often do include them. Use a potato peeler to peel away the tough fibrous outer layer of the stem before using.

Can I substitute the sugar?

To make this a paleo broccoli salad, you can substitute the sugar with honey, adding it to taste.

          Hi Dena, they use some sort of natural spray from our local Zamzows. I can’t remember the name but if you go to your local hardware or outdoor type store (like Zamzows), they can help – I find they are very knowledgeable usually for your specific location and know which bugs are troublesome for which plans. They steered us in the right direction.

        For the person who asked about making it vegan, I made it with vegan mayo and vegan sour cream and it was delicious. I agree with what one person who also made it vegan said about leaving out the sugar, as it was too sweet.

    This one is a winner! I changed very little, using half broccoli and half cauliflower (because that is what I had). I blanched both instead of using them raw. Also, I used fresh red grapes instead of the raisins (because I didn’t have raisins or craisins in the larder). For the rest, no changes whatsoever and it really turned out beautifully well. The recipe will be a keeper for sure! Thank you for sharing!

    I made this and at first felt the fresh squeezed lemon juice a little overpowering, but I added more than 1TB. of light brown sugar, plus a little milk, and then we loved it. The idea for brown sugar and milk was from another similar recipe. Will make this again, thanks!

    I love this recipe very much as is for myself, but my daughter has food intolerance to product such as eggs, cow and goat milk, so I’m wondering what to use to replace mayo and sour cream since there is egg in mayo and I think there must be milk in yogurt and sour cream.

      Hi Diane! That is a bit tricky with this dressing. I different dressing may work better than omitting the base. Here is what one of our readers posted ” Left out the sugar and dairy, just used the homemade mayo and lemon juice, it was bright and crunchy and excellent for this hot day.” I hope this helps!

      Hi Betty, I think it’s do-able but probably difficult since you would have most of the ingredients left over after making 1 portion. It would probably be much easier to reduce it down by half.

    Do you use a tart or sweet apple?

      Hi Pamela, I use a sweeter crisp apple to add some sweetness to the salad 🙂

    This was an amazing salad and is now our family’s regular. I did leave off the nuts since we have nut allergies in the family and it is outstanding without the nuts. I love it chopped fine vs large pieces.

    So delicious salad! It can be eaten as by itself, without a main course. Carrots and an apple are a good combination for vision, and pecans-for increased energy level. Thank you 😍

    Hi Natasha! I was a little unsure of this salad combination but I decided to try it. Delicious!! Even my husband, who is not a fan of mayo-based dressing, loved it!! He finished the leftovers when he was working from home.

        I made this salad recently and it is a keeper! Made a couple tweaks to it, added the lemon zest and no sugar to the dressing thinking the apple, cranberries, and carrot will give their natural sweetness and they did.
        Great recipe!👍

    I’m not sure of the amount of broccoli to use. Can you give me an estimate of how many cups of pieces to use?

      Hi Cindy, I would guess it is about 7 cups of broccoli.

      Hi Linda, I would not recommend blanching since you will lose that crisp texture that we love so much and the flavor profile wouldn’t be quite the same if it is blanched.

        I blanched for no more than 1 min and it was still crunchy

    I recently made this for an elderly couple who have health problems and needed some meals to help them out. They both were so excited about this salad! The wife said she typically doesn’t care for broccoli salads (I didn’t know!), but she loved this one! The husband since then has asked for the recipe, and they have both not forgotten it! Thanks so much for sharing. This will be a regular for us 😊

      Due to time constraints, I don’t typically include nutritional info, but check out this nutrition analyzer – you can plug in the ingredients from any recipe, select the serving size and it will give you nutritional info, calories, etc. I hope that is helpful to you Jerry!

    I am eating a bowl of this as I type, it is SO delicious. I didn’t have any sour cream on hand so I substituted plain yogurt. I’ve been trying to find a way to make myself like broccoli again while I’m expecting and this totally did the trick. Will be making this again soon! Thank you so much Natasha!
