For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to the dressing. To toast the almonds, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden. Watch them carefully to prevent burning! If you're preparing the salad in advance, you can keep the dressed salad refrigerated for up to 4 hours. Beyond that, the broccoli might lose some of its crispness. Consider adding red onion for a little bit of sharpness.
