Thank you for sharing this recipe. I also used rice vinegar instead of the apple cider vinegar, it added just a bit more sweetness. But either way, super easy and delicious! Easy to meal prep during the week!

I LOVE Chicken Salad Chick’s broccoli salad and I eat it a lot. I made this recipe and it was very close, but still seemed “off”. I then remade the dressing with a change. I suggest the one alteration that I made – use rice vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar. I used Dukes mayo, as suggested, as well a superfine granulated sugar (baker’s sugar) The sugar dissolves in the vinegar much faster. Anyway, with the rice vinegar – it’s exactly the same to me as the original!
