A fresh salad to fight those pandemic pounds. It has broccoli, and zucchini, and bacon!

Times are tough, you are stuck at home. The strategic stockpile of cookies is long eaten, but the results have stuck with you.

Not to worry!

We have broccoli, and other veggies! That waistline will shrink in no time! Never mind the bacon and mayo….it’s good for you.

Serves 2ish for lunch, 30 minutes to make, a couple hours to rest in the fridge.
