I love broccoli salad. Our original Broccoli Salad recipe is one of our most popular recipes but since mayo and bacon are no longer on our menu, it was high time I find an alternative. Every week I see these beautiful purple, yellow and orange carrots and I always think, “I should make something with these”. Well, I finally put them to good use in this crunchy, healthy broccoli salad makeover.
