I steamed the broccoli (slightly) as a few suggested....This was tasty and healthy. I was hoping the dressing had a bit more zing; but I would definitely have it again.

We didn't care for this. It was certainly edible, but I found it bland and the dressing too watery (maybe my yogurt was old??) I blanched the broccoli as others suggested and made extra sauce, but all in all I just thought it lacked flavor.

It seemed a little bland to me. I tried to spruce it up but couldn't get it quite right.

Really a good salad! And healthy too! I added about 2 T. real bacon bits for flavor and blanched the broccoli about 2 minutes to bring out the bright color. Didn't like it much when I first prepared it but after sitting overnight it's delicious! The flavors have really blended. I think it would be good with chopped walnuts instead of the sunflower seeds. That would even make it healthier. Will definitely make again!

I loved this! Such wonderful flavor and can be made in a snap! I always blanch broccoli, as I don't like that real raw flavor and it brings out the green. I also added salt and pepper, had low fat mayo and full fat yogurt. I only had a tangerine so used the juice from that and also a bit of the grated rind thrown in. It really brought out a beautiful flavor and the color of bits of orange. I didn't have sunflower seeds so threw in a few cashews for crunch. The textures are also wonderful in this salad and so healthy. Will definitely be a summer staple in my house. It was nice to find one that didn't take bacon, as my husband doesn't eat pork.

This salad was great with a few modifications. First blanch the broccoli. Second double the dressing and use real mayonnaise (it's only a couple of tablespoons for Pete's sake!) and Third ADD BACON.

I enjoyed this very much but I did blanche the broccoli for 1 minute first, I also added a tsp of chopped garlic to give it a bit more zing. I never knew broccoli could taste so good!!!

Blanch the broccoli florets (drop them into boiling water for 1 minute, then drain or put into a salad spinner to dry) before adding the other ingredients and dressing. 100% improvement.

A little dry. Next time I'll try it with extra sauce.

Very healthy. I added a bit more miracle whip than 1 T. but not much. You couldn't even tell you were eating a yogurt based salad. Broccoli salad is one of my favorites - now I don't have to feel guilty about it! Thanks!
