Hey guys! ☺️ Matthew Francis here, the chef and Tasty Producer of this video! I make this salad like once a week! 1) if your not vegan, feel free to add some chicken for extra protein! 2) cut the broccoli into bite size, florets, so it’s not too crunchy. The dressing will help soften it too. 3) this salad is also awesome with a lemon tahini dressing.

You’ll need a big salad bowl 😂.

This is delicious! I added a little more olive oil to balance out the acid in the vinegar and the lemon juice. Also don’t be afraid to add chicken for extra protein!

It was tasty and easy but the dressing was very acidic. Next time I’d either add more maple syrup or cut back the lemon and ginger a bit. A few hard boiled eggs or toasted chickpeas would be good too.
