Primal Broccoli and Apple Salad

There is so much to love about this salad!  It’s fresh, crunchy, creamy and really easy to put together!!  It makes a great side dish for any occasion or evening meal.  If you’re taking this salad to a potluck or serving a larger group of people, you may want to double the recipe…it’s that good! 

Note:  Ingredient swaps and add-ins…not feeling the walnuts, swap out for pecans or sunflower seeds.  Toss in a handful of cranberries for added color and sweetness.  Add some cauliflower florets to really amp up the veggie content.
