You Might Also Like
Vegan – You can easily make this vegan by swapping the mayo and sour cream with vegan mayo and sour cream.
Florets – A floret just means smaller pieces of the broccoli and cauliflower, so it basically means chopped.
Tomato – The original recipe called for cutting the cherry tomatoes in half, I don’t do that. It’s completely up to you if you want to!
Onion – You can reduce the amount of onion, or leave it out, if you don’t like onions.
Fresh florets – A few things: You can buy the broccoli and cauliflower already in florets, or you can chop them up yourself. Use fresh, frozen will not work.
Make ahead – You can make this ahead and it will still taste great when served!
