Description

This Creamy Feta Broccoli Salad comes together with crunchy broccoli, salty bacon, creamy feta, sweet Medjool dates, and roasted pistachios, all tossed in a creamy tahini dressing. My classic homemade broccoli salad is one of my favorite recipes but I love the spin this recipe gives on the classic. The combination of flavors and textures is seriously so good, and the best part is that it gets even better as it sits. Whether you serve it at cookouts, family dinners, or meal prep it for the week, this fresh, flavorful salad is always a hit!
