How to make Broccoli Apple Salad:
Make Dressing: Whisk together all dressing ingredients until smooth. Combine: In a large bowl toss together broccoli, apples, red onion, almonds, sunflower seeds, and dried cranberries. Pour Dressing: Drizzle the dressing, just a little at a time, over the salad and toss to combine. Chill for at least one hour before serving.

Make Ahead Instructions
This is a great salad to make several hours of a day ahead of time, as the flavors will blend together the longer it rests. The dressing can be made 1 week ahead of time, stored in the fridge.
