Tangy Broccoli and Apple Salad

With BBQ season fast approaching we all need lightened up salads in our repertoires.   I was inspired once again during my Saturday morning routine where my daughter woke up the rooster who woke up this mom and I laid in bed with Paw Patrol, a toddler snuggled up with me and Facebook (admittedly I only had one eye open at this point but you get the picture).  It’s really easy to get caught up in the word “salad”; mayonnaise, cheese, bacon, nuts… See where I’m going with this???  Step away from the calories and try this insanely tangy, crunchy salad… That’s right…. SALAD, like for real 😉
