Lemon and Mustard Broccoli Salad is a healthy and flavorful salad made with fresh broccoli, crunchy almonds, and tangy dressing. The salad is usually made by blanching broccoli florets and then tossing them with a dressing made with lemon juice, Dijon mustard, olive oil, and honey. The dressing is tangy, sweet, and savory, and goes perfectly with the nutty flavor of the almonds and the crispness of the broccoli.
