Creamy Broccoli, Cauliflower, Corn, and Bacon Salad Directions:
- Wash and chop the broccoli and cauliflower into small, bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the corn kernels and finely chopped red onion to the bowl.
- Cook the turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Let it cool slightly, then crumble it into small pieces.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the reduced-fat mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the creamy dressing over the broccoli, cauliflower, corn, and onion.
- Add the crumbled bacon, reserving a little for garnish if desired.
- Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
- Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, garnish with reserved bacon bits or optional add-ins like shredded cheese or sunflower seeds.
- Serve as a side dish for grilled chicken or fish, or enjoy it as a light lunch on its own.
