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
