The BEST And Easiest Vegan Broccoli Salad you will ever have! With apples, dried cranberries, crisp grapes, red onions, sunflower seeds and a deliciously creamy, sweet and tangy mayonnaise based dressing. Perfect summer potluck recipe!
Vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters alike devour my healthy broccoli salad at parties, Bbq's and potlucks, and nobody misses the bacon or cheese either! It’s that good!
So say no to a pre packaged salad! You will not need it. This salad is so easy and the taste is far superior.
This is honestly one of my favourite salads to make for a gathering and also one of my favourite ways to eat broccoli, lol!
This Salad is pretty versatile so feel free to swap out some of the ingredients if you like.
Here are some Broccoli Salad substitutions:
- Cauliflower for broccoli
- Walnuts or pumpkin seeds for sunflower seeds or a combo of both
- dried cherries for cranberries (so good!)
- Add more grapes and omit the apples or vice versa
- Add 1/4 cup grated carrot, yum!
How to make Vegan Broccoli Salad:
- Whisk the salad dressing ingredients in a small bowl and set aside
- Prep the veggies, fruit and nuts and add to a salad bowl
- Pour in the salad dressing and mix everything together. Season with salt and pepper. Easy Peasy!
- Cover the Salad and Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Serve and Enjoy!
