Preparation Instructions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Prepare a bowl of ice water. Chop the broccoli, cutting into florets and including some pieces of the stems as well.

As soon as the water is boiling, add the broccoli. Blanch for 30-60 seconds until the broccoli is a vibrant green. Drain and transfer the broccoli to the ice water.

Whisk together the mayonnaise, yogurt, dijon mustard, lemon zest, and juice.

Fold the broccoli into the dressing and finish with the bacon/feta, raisins, sweet onion, and sliced almonds.
