Crunchy broccoli salad with maple and mustard vinaigrette
I never get tired of making salads. This one is how I like them: quick to prepare, packed with flavor, texture and as good to taste as it is to look!
In addition to being 100% vegetable and gluten free, this salad is low in carbohydrates and has an excellent fiber content thanks to the broccoli and sunflower seeds it contains.
Sunflower seed is interesting especially for its richness in vitamin E which is antioxidant, which protects cells from free radicals and strengthens the immune system.
