    • Tips for the Best Broccoli Salad

    • Blanch the broccoli (optional): If you prefer a slightly softer texture, blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 1 minute, then shock in ice water.
    • Make ahead: This salad tastes even better the next day — perfect for meal prep.
    • Customize it: Swap bacon for turkey bacon, use almonds instead of sunflower seeds, or try dried cherries instead of cranberries.
    • Lighter version: Use half mayo and half Greek yogurt, or a sugar-free sweetener in the dressing.
