This crisp and super fresh veggie-packed salad is perfect for the summer. I like to make a big batch and keep it in the fridge. It keeps well for a few days, with the flavours intensifying each day. Enjoy it as a side salad or as your main course on warm days.
My recipe uses little pasta to keep the simple-carb count a bit lower. I added chickpeas to replace them because I find they have a similar texture. You could add more pasta if you like.

I love the broccoli salad that I get from the Walmart deli. Does anyone know the recipe?

Thanks so much, this will save me so much money, lol. I buy this stuff ALOT!!
Thanks for posting this. I love this salad but don't purchase it very often at the deli as it is way too expensive. Now I can make it myself! Thanks again!
How many calories per serving?
was way too much sugar for me . . . cut in half, was still too much; dressing was much thicker than what I get at my WalMart, but I have to chop theirs up more so I can eat it since I don't have any teeth. Thanks, it;s a start though.
I made it similar to this, but added maple syrup. 1/2and half with mayo
Mix broccoli (can use cauliflower instead), onion, raisins, and bacon; add cashews just before adding dressing. Mix dressing and let set until dissolved. Add to salad immediately before serving.

In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, grapes, celery, onions, water chestnuts and raisins.
Cook broccoli in saucepan until tender, drain, and set aside. Heat the sesame oil in saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until golden, about two minutes.
