Raw Broccoli Salad

Today I was missing broccoli which is one of my fave vegetables but  it just sucks to cook it now… I feel like I killed it and the texture- bleh! So I had a quick look around the internet, as you do and saw a few raw  recipes for broccoli and armed with a couple of good ideas I gave it a crack and the recipe went like this:

2 big heads of broccoli cut into little bite sized bits

the juice of an orange

1/4 cup of olive oil

2 Tbsp  balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup walnuts

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

1 Tbsp sesame seeds

pinch of salt

pepper

Tbsp corriander

and a little bit of chilli if you like that sort of thing.

Mix up the  ingredients and drizzle over the broccoli.

Toss it every 5 minutes or so and let it marinate for at least an hour before you serve it.

It is really so yummy- I would put a photo up but we ate it all… the kids loved it – no really! – it makes a great and healthy kids snack – who knew?
