Green Harmony Broccoli Salad with Herbal Vitality Dressing

Green Harmony Broccoli Salad with Herbal Vitality Dressing

Eating healthy often carries the misconception of being bland, repetitive, or uninspiring. But when a bowl like the Green Harmony Broccoli Salad comes to the table, it instantly changes that perception. Bright colors from broccoli, carrots, and red cabbage make it visually delightful, while the crunch of cashews and the softness of mozzarella ensure every bite feels satisfying. This salad isn’t just about throwing vegetables together, it’s a thoughtful combination designed to nourish your body while indulging your senses.
What makes it even more appealing is the Herbal Vitality Dressing. Instead of relying on heavy oils or processed condiments, this yogurt-based dressing bursts with the freshness of parsley, mint, basil, dill, and lemon. It’s smooth, tangy, and aromatic in a way that elevates even the simplest ingredients. The herbs don’t just add flavor, they also contribute to better digestion, detoxification, and a calming effect on the body.
More than a meal, this dish feels like a wellness ritual. It caters to people aiming for low-carb, low-oil options while supporting those managing conditions like diabetes, heart health, or weight control. And yet, it never compromises on abundance. This is the spirit of “Feast Big; Stay Fit”, enjoy generous portions without guilt, knowing every ingredient is working in your favor.

    2 cup Broccoli, 1 cup Carrot, 1 cup Red Cabbage, 1 tbsp Dried Cranberries, 1/4 cup Roasted Cashews, 1 cup Fat Free Mozzarella
  2. Add Greek yogurt, parsley, mint, basil, dill, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to a blender or food processor. Blend until creamy and smooth (tiny green flecks of herbs will remain).

Notes

Here are some special tips/notes: 
Broccoli prep: For a crunchier bite, keep the broccoli raw. If you prefer a softer texture, blanch the florets in hot water for 1–2 minutes and then cool them in ice water before using.
Cheese swap: Fresh mozzarella adds creaminess, but you can replace it with feta for tang or skip cheese entirely for a dairy-free version.
Nut variations: Roasted cashews bring richness, but almonds, walnuts, or sunflower seeds work beautifully for different textures.
Dressing consistency: If you like a thinner dressing, add 1–2 tablespoons of water or extra lemon juice before blending.
Make ahead: You can prep the dressing a day in advance and store it in the fridge. Toss the salad just before serving to keep the veggies crisp.
Storage tip: Once dressed, the salad keeps well for up to 24 hours in the fridge. For best freshness, store salad and dressing separately if planning to eat later.
Flavor boost: A pinch of chili flakes or ground cumin in the dressing can give a subtle kick.
Vegan option: Replace Greek yogurt with unsweetened coconut yogurt and skip mozzarella for a completely plant-based version.
