Ingredients
Serves 4 (or 6–8 as a side)
coconut bakon
Sunflower cream dressing
salad
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C fan forced and line a tray with baking paper.
- To make the coconut bakon, place all the ingredients into a bowl and toss to combine. Transfer the mixture to the prepared tray and spread out evenly. Bake, tossing once or twice throughout the cooking process, for about 12–13 minutes or until crispy. Watch closely for the last few minutes as they burn easily. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- To make the sunflower cream dressing, place all the ingredients into a blender and blend for about 30 seconds or until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- To make the salad, place the broccoli, onions, cranberries, and almonds into a large bowl. Add the dressing and mix to combine. Add the diced avocado and ¾ of the coconut bakon, then gently toss through the salad.
- To serve, transfer the salad to a serving plate. Scatter over the extra spring onions and remaining coconut bakon.
