Broccoli Slaw

I was having one of those days when I wanted a quick and easy salad but couldn’t bear to eat any more lettuce.  I was in the produce section of the grocery store when I saw a bag of broccoli slaw.  We are not fans of bottled salad dressings so I tossed together another slaw recipe dressing and “voila” Broccoli Slaw was born.

Ingredients

  • 12oz/340g bag broccoli slaw
  • 1/4 cup raisins and/or dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts and/or pecans
  • 1 diced apple, dipped in lemon juice
  • 1 green onion (green part only)

Dressing

  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt or Hellmann’s Light Olive Oil Mayonaisse
  • 1 tbls honey
  • 1 tbls white vinegar
  • 1 tbls lemon juice
  • 1 green onion bulb

Directions

  1. Mix dressing ingredients in blender.
  2. Toss with salad and enjoy.

Serving Suggestions:
This makes a large salad. If you don’t think you can eat it all in one day I would make the dressing and use half of it  and half of the salad ingredients and a couple of days later make it again. If you use Miracle Whip instead of Hellmann’s you could eliminate the lemon juice in the dressing.
