Assemble the Salad (5 minutes): In a large bowl, combine the broccoli florets, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, diced red onion, and sunflower seeds.
-
Make the Dressing (5 minutes): In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and erythritol until smooth.
-
Combine and Chill (1 hour+): Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss until everything is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together. This will also help the broccoli soften slightly.
