Broccoli Crunch Salad with Figs & Bacon

White Sparrow Food Co Broccoli Crunch Salad with Figs & Bacon
I absolutely love this salad.
 
Raw broccoli is coated with a simple lemony mayo based dressing – with the bite of apple cider vinegar. I love the crispy bacon bites and the soft chewy figs. The pops of red onion and crunchy sunflower seeds and cashews.
 
Gosh, it’s a good one!
 
It’s even great the next day – but I doubt it will last that long. Meal prep this for lunch or a quick dinner side.

This salad is based off of a grocery store version.

Whole Foods has an amazing Broccoli Crunch salad. They serve it in their prepared foods section.

This salad is totally inspired from the first time I tried it.

I knew I had to make it my own. I changed it up – of course. Using avocado mayo, sunflower seeds and lots of bacon bits. 

It tastes so much like it – I could have it 4 times a week for lunch!

Do you have a favorite find at your local grocery store deli counter?

So many more salads you will love.
