My Broccoli Salad

Ingredients

• 8 cups fresh broccoli (about 6 stalks)
• 5 apples (or so, use your favourite kind)
• 400 g trail mix (the mix of nuts and raisins)
• 175 g dried cranberries
• 350 g low-fat vanilla yogurt
• 1 cup mandarin orange segments (optional)

Directions

1. 1

   Chop broccoli up. Bite sized pieces are the nicest.

2. 2

   Throw in a large bowl.

3. 3

   Cut the apples into quarters. Core them. Leave the skin on though, it adds a nice colour and texture to the salad. Cut each quarter into three wedges. Then slice them into bite sized pieces.

4. 4

   Throw them into same bowl.

5. 5

   Toss youth mix and cranberries on top.

6. 6

   Cut orange segments in half (if using).

7. 7

   Toss in the bowl.

8. 8

   Scoop vanilla yogurt on top. I use two of those little yogurt cups for the vanilla yogurt.

9. 9

   Mix well. I find that two large wooden spoons works well. IT won't look like there is enough yogurt at first -- but keep stirring.

10. 10

    This can be served right away -- but the flavours are best when it has sat in the fridge for at least an hour.
