Instructions

Cook the bacon according to package instructions then cool. Once cool roughly chop it for the salad.
Add the chopped bacon to a bowl with the broccoli and sliced red onion.
In a blender, blend the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar and stevia.
Pour the Greek yogurt mixture over the broccoli mixture. Stir to combine evenly among the veggies. Sprinkle the sunflower seeds on top.
Store the broccoli salad in the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to serving. Enjoy!

Notes

Serve the salad well chilled! The longer it sits, the better it is because it's had more time to absorb the flavors from the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar and stevia.
Store leftovers. Place the salad in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to three days. It's not recommended to store this healthy broccoli salad in the freezer.
Make it the night before. Whether you're making the broccoli salad for an event or family dinner, I recommend making it the night before. That way the flavors have plenty of time to mingle.
