  1. I agree that this is an excellent salad. And a place where my food processor is a life-saver. So easy to put that broccoli in the machine and with a few quick whirrs of the chopping blade, most of the work is done. Rather than let the machine go too long, I stop it and hand chop the few pieces that didn't get hit finely enough with the blade.
