Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad-Quick and Easy

Broccoli and cauliflower always pair well together, and this quick and easy broccoli and cauliflower salad is no exception. You can leave out the hard cooked eggs but I think it’s an economical way to get in some protein. If you do leave out the eggs then go ahead and add extra veggies.

Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad

• 1 cup raw broccoli florets, washed and drained
• 1 cup raw cauliflower florets, washed and drained
• 6 hard boiled eggs, chopped (optional)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
