I've been holding out on this recipe for a while. It's not that I don't love you all and want you to have all the good recipes. I do! It's just that I thought this one would be perfect for all things pink day coming up next week.

Seriously, how is it almost Valentine's Day already?

Also, do you have any big V-Day plans? I can't decide whether my handsome man and I should join the throngs of people eating at all the fancy restaurants or if we should stay at home and eat all the Molten Lava Chocolate Cakes. (BTW I have you tried those yet? #todiefor)

If we stay home we should prob start with this Roasted Broccoli Salad. You know, veggies first. (omg I've turned into such a mom.)

Seriously though, this salad isn't just the prettiest color ever, it's super delicious, too.

This Roasted Broccoli Salad of my Dreams

There are so many good things going on in this salad that it's hard not to fall in love with it. It's loaded with crispy bacon and toasted pecans, which makes it all things awesome right there.

Then there are the blueberries. Don't you just love blueberries? I've used frozen blueberries since it's not blueberry season. I know it sounds a little strange, but it totally works. You can add them frozen straight to the salad and they'll thaw before you serve it. They are a little bit soft, which is perfect in this salad.

There's tons of broccoli in here, too. (A roasted broccoli salad with tons of broccoli, go figure. Ha!) But it's true, there is. Three whole heads of it, to be precise. You roast more than half of it until it's crispy and has an almost nutty flavor. It's so delicious.

Then there's the dressing that brings it all together. It's a simple creamy vinaigrette that has the perfect amount of tang to it. You're going to love it!
