Cauliflower Broccoli Salad with Apricots

Different fruit for an old salad.

https://sieterevueltas.net/lf35zdbr5 I think we have all made some type of broccoli salad over the years. I know I use to make one that had peanuts and raisins but I decided to change my broccoli salad up a little.

If there’s a veggie tray out at a party, that bushy green stuff will still be sitting there when I’m done with it. I have to say broccoli is one of my least favorite raw vegetables. I always use to love a broccoli casserole recipe a friend gave me back in the 70’s, but that was one of those casseroles loaded with soup and garlic cheese roll (can’t find that any more). I guess it’s ok if it is drenched in cheese sauce but then how good is that for you.

One would think I was ready to be invaded with hordes of people for a weekend of fun and sun around the pool. As It turned out I made this salad twice over Labor Day weekend.

The old version of this salad was good and still is but I wanted to try the additional of apricots instead of the raisins and when my bag of apricots didn’t look anywhere nearly big enough to go with that bag of broccoli, I added some dried chopped figs to the mix.  Fried bacon never hurt any recipe and toasting the sunflower seeds even though they are already roasted just made them better.

Sorry about the blurred picture but you get the idea. After mixing up the dressing pour over salad and toss until coated.
