How to make Berry Broccoli Veg Salad healthier
The Berry Broccoli Veg Salad benefits come not only from the healthy vegetables that go in it but also from the dressing, creamy mayonnaise and the goodness of nuts added to it. The dressings and mayo available in the market are loaded with calories and preservatives which negates the benefits of salad consumption. They can be whisked at home with a little pre-preparation. The cashew nut mayonnaise has the goodness of sweet potato and flavours of Dijon mustard and the poppy seeds dressing helps decrease anxiety, calms the mind and aids sleep. When serving the salad to children, moderate the drizzle of dressing or replace it with olive oil. Sliced cranberries and a handful of almonds packs a powerful punch and parmesan cheese make it filling and interesting. Add a slice of whole wheat multigrain brown bread toast or bread croutons and a bowl of soup to make an interesting brunch spread. Follow this simple and easy to understand Berry Broccoli Veg Salad recipe to prepare Berry Broccoli Veg Salad at home.

Success!

We hope you had fun making it! Enjoy the meal.
