Need a break from traditional holiday foods? This recipe takes humble broccoli and transforms it into a crunchy, savory delight. Broccoli, known for its nutritional prowess, provides a crisp and fresh base for this salad, packed with vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants. The addition of crispy bacon brings a smoky and salty note, elevating the dish to a satisfying and savory experience.

This hearty salad makes six servings, so it is great to make early in the week for meal prep. The savory, more bitter flavor of the Arugula is an excellent complement to the sweetness of the potato and dried cranberries. Top it with your combination of seeds and nuts to provide a great crunch, and you have a fantastic meal or side dish!
