There’s a good chance that you’ve had broccoli salad at a potluck or family picnic. It’s normally a staple and sits pretty among all of the salads that are swimming in fake mayonnaise, sugar, and other ingredients that do nothing, but put us in a comatose state afterwards. This version of the traditional broccoli salad is made with honey instead of sugar to give you an extra boost of energy. Take it to your next gathering and be ready to give out the recipe!
