Watch Lindsay make this Broccoli Salad on stories!
My friend Liz introduced me to this salad, which was introduced to her by another friend, Amanda, and isn’t that just how the best recipes go? From one food-loving person to another, and onto another, and now here, to your screen, ready for you to devour in 5 seconds flat. The ingredients here are humble and low-key, but together they make a FLAVOR BANG:
shallot bacon feta lemon broccoli sourdough
Throw in some olive oil, salt, pepper, and you are ready to embark on a beautiful roasted broccoli journey.
This Has Everything You Could Want In a Salad
The flavors in this are just everything I want in all my meals ever: tangy, crunchy, slightly bitter and bright from the lemon zest, salty from the crisped-up bacon, and all built around a big bowl of roasted broccoli, which, in and of itself is a true hero. Reasons I love this as an SOS meal:
It’s incredibly delicious. Good food, good mood. Instant lift. The actual hands-on prep for this is so minimal. Basically everything happens on a sheet pan, leaving you plenty of time to… not be in the kitchen. This is super customizable. For example, if you wanted to really bulk it up you could add some rotisserie chicken or some more roasted veggies. It actually keeps really nicely as leftovers. The bread is the one tricky thing that can get soggy, so just keep those croutons nice and dry in a separate container. But truly, this salad can be eaten and enjoyed hot, cold, room temp – I know you’re going to question it but I have even eaten these leftovers for breakfast. Riding that SOS train all the way to the very last stop.
I don’t want you to be jealous, but as I write this, there is a sheet pan of broccoli, bacon, and shallots in my oven. My house smells amazing, I will be eating this soon, and IT IS A GLORIOUS DAY.
