Came up with this for a more exotic twist on the classic bacon broccoli salad, since many of us are vegetarians. Makes a great summer potluck dish, and a quick side to a world cuisine menu. Play with the type of curry powder you use to change up the base flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 large head broccoli, cut into florets

  • ½ red bell pepper, chopped

  • ½ cup dried cranberries

  • ½ cup chopped walnuts

  • 4 scallions, chopped

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon white sugar

  • 1 tablespoon curry powder, or more to taste

  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (Optional)

Method

  1. Mix broccoli, red bell pepper, cranberries, walnuts, and scallions together in a large bowl.

  2. Whisk mayonnaise, lime juice, vinegar, sugar, curry powder, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until smooth; pour over broccoli mixture and toss to coat. Refrigerate salad until flavors blend, 2 hours to overnight. Toss well before serving.
