Cranberry-Almond Broccoli Salad

Cranberry-Almond Broccoli Salad was pinched from <a href="http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/cranberry-almond-broccoli-salad" target="_blank">www.myrecipes.com.</a>

"Broccoli salad is usually drowning in a creamy, often very sweet, dressing and studded with 1/2 pound crumbled bacon, making it more about the creamy dressing and bacon than about the actual broccoli. Ours uses a combination of canola mayonnaise and Greek yogurt to keep the calories in check. We opt for center-cut bacon (a bit less of it) and swap the usual raisins for lower-sugar dried cranberries to pack a subtle punch of tart. The best part of this salad? The longer it sits, the better it gets...."
