BROCCOLI BACON SALAD

This broccoli salad is a version of the classic one with red onions and cheese.  It’s lightened up a bit with reduced fat mayo and sour cream, but what I love is the cranberry addition!

1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
4 cups finely chopped broccoli crowns
1 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, rinsed and chopped (optional)
3 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
3 tablespoons dried cranberries
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Whisk garlic, mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar and sugar in a large bowl. Add broccoli, water chestnuts, bacon, cranberries and pepper; stir to coat with the dressing.
