Ingredients
Instructions
  1. In a large pan over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp. Transfer cooked bacon to paper towel-lined plate to de-grease.
  2. Transfer almost all crumbled bacon from plate to a large mixing bowl, setting some bacon aside for garnish. To bowl, add broccoli and shredded cheddar and toss all ingredients together until well-combined.
  3. To a small mixing bowl, add mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, and monk fruit sweetener and mix together. Pour into mixing bowl of bacon and broccoli and toss until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  4. Cover bowl with lid or foil and transfer mixing bowl to refrigerator to chill for 1 hour. Immediately prior to serving, mix in sunflower seeds and garnish bowls with remaining bacon crumbles.
Recipe Notes

Broccoli Substitution: Cauliflower florets can be substituted in for broccoli florets at a 1:1 ratio. Alternatively, you can use both cauliflower florets (½ lb) and broccoli florets (½ lb) for a Broccoli Cauliflower Salad.

Monk Fruit Sweetener Substitution: In place of monk fruit sweetener, erythritol or Swerve can be used at a 1:1 ratio. To substitute stevia in, I would suggest using pure powdered stevia and, since a little bit goes a very long way, start with only ¼ tsp and then taste test before adding more.

Sunflower Seed Substitution: If you do not have a nut allergy or intolerance, slivered almonds or chopped walnuts can be substituted in for sunflower seeds at a 1:1 ratio.

Storage: Store broccoli salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days.
