Instructions

  1. Mix all dressing ingredients together until smooth.  Allow it to sit on the counter for at least 30 minutes while you prepare your vegetables. (This is to make sure the salt and honey are dissolved and well incorporated)
  2. Chop the broccoli and cauliflower into bite sized pieces.  Do the same with the tomatoes and mushrooms if using.
  3. Thinly slice red onion.
  4. Toss the veggies together with the dressing.  Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.  The longer it sits, the better it gets!

Nutritional Info

Storage

This is a fantastic make-ahead salad. It keeps very well in the fridge and actually gets better as it sits.‍

Notes

If you choose to add tomatoes and/or mushrooms, make sure to use extra dressing.  An additional half batch of dressing will work if using the amounts suggested above.
