Looking for a side dish or one of those recipes you can make on Sunday and eat all day? This Easy & Healthy Broccoli Salad with Bacon recipe is a over the top recipe that is perfect for munching on the following day!
Preheat the oven to 400° F and evenly spread the broccoli on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the broccoli is soft and slightly charred
Line a second rimmed baking sheet with foil, and place a cooling rack on top of the foil
Lay the bacon strips on the rack and bake for 10-15 minutes, until desired crispness. The bacon will be done before the broccoli. When cool enough to touch, crumble the bacon and set aside
When the broccoli is finished, cool it in the refrigerator and wait to use it until it is completely cooled
Meanwhile, make the ranch dressing by combining all of the ingredients together in a food processor and mixing until smooth. (Halve the existing recipe!)
When the broccoli is cool, mix it together in a large bowl with the ranch dressing, Parmesan, and bacon. Squeeze the lemon juice over it, season it with salt and pepper, and toss gently to evenly coat
