Vegan Bacon-Flavored Broccoli Salad
This twist on classic broccoli salad omits all animal products, replacing mayo with mashed avocado, using seasonings to mimic bacon flavor, and greatly reducing added sugar.
Ingredients
- 5 cups broccoli florets
- 1/3 cup raisins
- 1/3 cup roasted sunflower seeds
- 3/4 - 1 cups avocado (about 1 large)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Optional
