VEGAN BROCCOLI SALAD RECIPE

Where my broccoli lovers at?!!!

We LOVE us some broccoli at our house & of course the nutritional benefits are THROUGH THE ROOF when it comes to this good ol' veggie. #winwin

Since we mainly eat it steamed (and sometimes roasted), I wanted to create a slightly different, & bit more fun , version to add into the dinner roster. I ALSO wanted it to be healthy & light on the system. Without further ado, this recipe came together & fit the bill to a "T". Let me know if you give it a try! xx
