Broccoli Salad with Szechuan Yoghurt Dressing

2

10 mins

Crunchy broccoli, sweet yellow pepper and juicy cherry tomatoes tossed in a creamy garlic yoghurt dressing with toasted Szechuan pepper, which gives a gentle, tingly warmth. Greek yoghurt makes the dressing high in protein, and the colourful vegetables add fibre and vitamin C.

  • 1 yellow pepper (around 80g), cut into thin strips
  • 8 cherry tomatoes, halved
