Easy broccoli and cauliflower salad

Total time: 15 mins

Serves 6

Broccoli never tasted so good! Raw broccoli can be totally boring but when you toss it into a salad with cheese and bacon and cover it with a creamy dressing incredible things just happen!  If you fancy another dressing use mayonnaise and wholegrain mustard instead along with some pinenuts for added crunch – deliciously tangy.
