02 - 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
03 - 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
04 - 2 tablespoons minced shallots
05 - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
06 - 1 teaspoon honey

10 - 1 pound broccoli, chopped into bite-sized pieces
11 - 1/4 cup dried cranberries
12 - 1/4 cup Manchego cheese, diced (or sharp cheddar, feta, etc.)
13 - 1/4 cup toasted almonds, chopped

# Instructions:

01 - In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, white wine vinegar, shallots, Dijon mustard, and honey. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking until the dressing emulsifies. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
02 - In a large bowl, mix the broccoli, cranberries, diced cheese, and almonds. Toss with the desired amount of dressing. Let the salad sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld, if desired.

# Notes:

02 - To maintain maximum freshness, keep the dressing separate and combine about 30 minutes before serving.
