This Crunchy Broccoli Delight Salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish perfect for any occasion.
Combine the light mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and sugar in a mixing bowl.
Whisk the dressing until the sugar is fully dissolved for a smooth texture.
Chop the fresh broccoli into bite-sized florets and dice the red onion.
Cut the broccoli into uniform pieces for even mixing and presentation.
Combine the broccoli, red onion, shredded cheddar cheese, crispy bacon, and toasted sunflower seeds in a large bowl.
Ensure the bacon is fully cooled before adding to maintain its crispiness.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until well coated.
Toss gently to avoid breaking the broccoli florets.
Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling the salad enhances the flavors and provides a refreshing taste.
Serve the salad chilled and enjoy.
Garnish with extra sunflower seeds or a sprinkle of cheese for presentation.
