ROASTED BROCCOLI SALAD



Roasted Broccoli Salad image

A great healthy salad that's perfect for everyday life or to bring to a party, potluck, game day or Super Bowl party. You can also make this with fresh broccoli instead of the roasted broccoli (great for those hot days you want to skip the oven - just skip drizzling with the oil and roasting - go straight to tossing with the other salad ingredients and dressing). You can also cook the broccoli on the grill instead of roasting.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound broccoli florets (, cut into bite sized pieces)
3 tablespoons olive oil (, for coating)
3-4 slices thick cut bacon (, cooked & cut into bite sized pieces (omit to make this salad vegetarian))
1/4 cup minced red onion
1/2 cup golden raisins ((or any combination of your favorite dried fruit cut into small pieces))
1/4 cup chopped cashews ((or any combination of your favorite nuts))
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper (, or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (, or to taste)
1 teaspoon dried herbs (, like thyme, basil, dill (optional))

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Make the dressing: In medium bowl, combine all dressing ingredients (mayo, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, dijon mustard, pepper, salt, and optional herbs). Set aside.
  • Add broccoli pieces in large bowl. Toss with olive oil to evenly coat the broccoli pieces. (Our preferred method is to add half the oil first, toss with the broccoli, then add the rest of the oil and toss again). Place the broccoli on the lined baking sheet.
  • Roast the broccoli for about 25-35 minutes, depending on the size of the broccoli pieces & your preference. Toss the broccoli at least once during baking. Once broccoli is roasted, remove from oven and allow to completely cool.
  • After broccoli is completely cool, toss with chopped bacon, red onions, raisins, cashews, and the dressing.Chill the salad for at least 1 hour before serving.

BROCCOLI AND BACON SALAD



Broccoli and Bacon Salad image

This is a great salad for picnics or potlucks! This version of broccoli salad uses more vinegar and less mayonnaise than most recipes. This gives you a slightly different, healthier option when choosing your next side dish. It's best if you wait until right before serving to add the dressing to keep bacon crisp.

BROCCOLI SALAD WITH CHEDDAR AND WARM BACON VINAIGRETTE



Broccoli Salad With Cheddar and Warm Bacon Vinaigrette image

Broccoli salads are a dime a dozen, but this one, which is adapted from Ashley Christensen's cookbook, "Poole's: Recipes From a Modern Diner," is a game-changing celebration of flavors, colors and textures: broccoli, toasted pecans and red grapes are cloaked in a warm bacon-scallion vinaigrette, then sprinkled with small chunks of sharp white Cheddar. Ms. Christensen's recipe, which uses the florets as well as the stalks, asks you to blanch the broccoli (cooking it for a few minutes in generously salted boiling water, then shocking it with salted iced water). It takes a little extra time, but the crisp-tender, bright green broccoli, seasoned inside and out, is your just reward. Try not to eat the entire bowl yourself.

Categories     salads and dressings, vegetables, side dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
1 bunch broccoli (about 1 1/4 pounds), ends trimmed
1/2 cup pecan halves
4 ounces bacon, diced
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
4 green onions, white and light green parts only, chopped
Black pepper
1 cup halved red seedless grapes
4 ounces aged white cheddar, sliced thin and crumbled

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of generously salted (use about 1/2 cup kosher salt) water to a boil. Set up an ice bath next to the stove and generously salt (about 1/4 cup kosher salt) that water as well.
  • Cut the broccoli stems from the heads; slice the florets into small pieces, each about 1-inch long. Peel the stems with a peeler and cut each stem in half lengthwise, then slice into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons. Add broccoli to the boiling water and blanch for 30 seconds; transfer to the ice water to shock the broccoli and stop the cooking. Drain broccoli in a colander, then set aside (still in the colander) to drain completely.
  • In a large dry skillet, toast pecans over medium heat until they smell nutty, about 1 minute; remove pecans and set aside. Return skillet to medium heat and add bacon and oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until bacon has rendered its fat and is crispy, about 10 minutes. Turn heat to low and whisk in mustard and vinegar. Add green onions and pecans and season generously with black pepper.
  • In a large bowl, combine broccoli and grapes. Pour the contents of the skillet into the bowl and toss to combine; season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the cheddar and toss right before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have open florets.
  • Roast the broccoli at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the florets and give them a slightly smoky flavor.
  • Use a good quality bacon: The bacon is one of the key ingredients in this salad, so it's important to use a good quality bacon that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Make sure the bacon is crispy: Crispy bacon will add a nice texture to the salad. To make sure the bacon is crispy, cook it over medium-high heat until it is browned and slightly charred.
  • Use a light vinaigrette dressing: A light vinaigrette dressing will help to brighten up the salad and prevent it from becoming too heavy.
  • Add some crumbled cheese: Crumbled cheese will add a nice salty and tangy flavor to the salad. You can use any type of cheese that you like, such as Parmesan, cheddar, or feta.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The broccoli will start to lose its crunch if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Roasted broccoli salad with bacon dressing is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give this roasted broccoli salad a try!
