Ingredients
- 4 cups of fresh chopped broccoli florets
- 2 cups of chopped fresh strawberries
- ¼ cup of chopped pecans
- 1/3 cup of goat cheese crumbled
- 5 oz plain Greek yogurt
- 2-4 tsp maple syrup or honey to taste
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- salt to taste
- ½ tbsp poppy seeds
Instructions
- Combine the broccoli, strawberries, cheese, and pecans in a large mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, mix the yogurt, maple syrup or honey, and lemon juice, stirring until everything’s evenly incorporated.
- Fold the dressing into the broccoli and strawberry mixture until all the fruit and veggies are evenly coated.Add some salt and the poppy seeds and stir them in.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve. I also like to omit the pecans and instead garnish with slivered almonds.
Notes
- Cut the broccoli fairly small and remove the stalks to keep the pieces bite
- sized.
- If you are allergic to nuts, feel free to omit them all together.
- This would be really yummy with some craisins, or even dried cherries, folded into the mix as well.
