Broccoli Peanut Cherry Salad Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk to combine the buttermilk, yogurt, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, nutmeg and dill. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the broccoli, peanuts, cherries and scallions.
• Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 day.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Slice the baguette half on the bias into 3/4-inch-thick slices (about 10). Place the slices on a baking sheet. Bake until lightly toasted, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place a saucepot over medium heat. Add the frozen cherries and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Use the side of a spoon to cut the cherries in half. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with 1/4 cup water. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the cherries, stirring to combine. Continue to cook until slightly thickened, 5 to 8 minutes more. Set aside to cool completely.
• To prepare the peanuts, place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and heat until melted. Spread out the breadcrumbs in the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until toasted, about 3 minutes. Push the breadcrumbs to the side of the skillet and add the peanuts. Heat for 1 minute just to cook off any brine. Turn off the heat and stir the peanuts into the breadcrumbs.
• To assemble, spoon the cherry sauce onto the crostini. Sprinkle the peanut crumble over the cherries. Sprinkle the crostini with the fresh mint and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar and lemon juice.
• Chill for an hour or two.
• In a large bowl, combine broccoli, raisins, peanuts, onions and bacon.
• Add the dressing mixture; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Trim the broccoli stalks and peel them to remove the tough outer layer. Cut off the florets, leaving as much of the stalk as possible intact, and set the florets aside. Using the shredding or julienne blade of a food processor, a mandoline or a sharp knife, julienne the stems and place them in a large bowl.
• Finely chop or julienne the florets and add them to the bowl, along with the scallions and peanuts.
• In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, combine the tahini, lime juice, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic and hot sauce and whisk until smooth. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss thoroughly to coat. Set aside at room temperature for at least 15 minutes, tossing occasionally, to allow the broccoli to soften slightly.
• Just before serving, add the fresh herbs and toss well. (You can refrigerate for up to 8 hours before serving.)

Steps:

• Put the walnuts in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and cook, tossing frequently, until golden brown and fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate, let cool, then roughly chop and set aside.
• Separate the broccoli florets from the stem. Thinly slice the florets and transfer to a large bowl. Use a spiralizer to slice half of the stem into small half-moon chips and slice the remaining half of the stem into round chips. Transfer to the same large bowl and set aside.
• Strip the kale leaves from the ribs. Discard the ribs or save for another use. Roughly chop the leaves into small pieces and add to the bowl with the broccoli along with the walnuts, dried cherries, chives and dill.
• Whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, honey, poppy seeds, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl until smooth. Pour over the veggies and toss to coat. Serve immediately or refrigerate until chilled and the flavors meld, 30 minutes.
