LITE BROCCOLI SALAD

I searched through over 100 recipes for broccoli salad on this site and didn't find one that exactly matched this one. I came up with this dressing by taking the traditional mayo sugar dressing and "liteing" it up a bit. My husband who does not like raw broccoli even likes this salad. The main reason I'm posting it is to get the nutritional content. Hope you all enjoy!
