Tips for the Best Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad

Cheese: The cheese can either be shredded or cubed in mini pieces if you prefer. Red onion: To help with the flavoring in the red onion, after it is chopped up, rinse the onion under cold water. This will help remove the harsh flavoring when eating. Add in: Craisins or peas for more tasty ingredients. Less calories: Omit the sugar and use less cheese and bacon. You will still have a delicious salad the healthier way! Making ahead: Make the dressing ahead of time and store separately in the refrigerator from the salad. Make the salad in a separate bowl and cover and store in the refrigerator also. When ready to serve combine the two bowls together.
