Emulsifier Free Broccoli Sprout Salad with Lemon & Garlic

This bright, crunchy salad is the kind of thing that makes you feel genuinely good about what you're eating — peppery broccoli sprouts, cool cucumber, and snappy radishes all tossed in a clean, zingy dressing. The real win here is how simple the dressing actually is: just olive oil, fresh lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. No store-bought condiments, no hidden additives, no emulsifying agents quietly tucked into an ingredient label. Whisking the oil and lemon together with a little minced garlic creates a light, cohesive coating that clings beautifully to the sprouts without needing anything artificial to hold it together. Letting the dressing rest for five minutes before tossing is a small step that makes a noticeable difference, softening the raw garlic into something rounder and more mellow. A scatter of raw pumpkin seeds at the end adds a satisfying crunch and a subtle nuttiness that rounds the whole bowl out. It comes together fast, tastes incredibly fresh, and is exactly the kind of salad you'll want to make on repeat.
