Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups broccoli slaw
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
- 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the broccoli slaw by ensuring it is fresh and crisp. If using pre-packaged broccoli slaw, drain any excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli slaw, sliced almonds, and chopped green onions. Gently toss the ingredients to distribute evenly.
- Create the dressing by whisking together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a separate small bowl until well combined and emulsified.
- Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning according to your preference.
- Pour the prepared dressing over the broccoli slaw mixture and toss thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well coated.
- Let the slaw sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the broccoli to slightly soften from the dressing.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or vinegar to balance the flavors.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature as a side dish or light meal.
Tips
- Moisture is the Enemy: Always pat your broccoli slaw dry to prevent a watery, soggy result. Use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess liquid.
- Customize Your Crunch: Feel free to add extra nuts like sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds for additional texture and nutrition.
- Dressing Pro Tip: Whisk the dressing vigorously to create a perfect emulsion that coats every single strand of broccoli slaw.
- Flavor Boost: For an extra kick, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or a few drops of hot sauce to the dressing.
- Make-Ahead Magic: This slaw actually tastes better after sitting for a few hours, so it's perfect for meal prep or potlucks!
- Storage Hack: Keep the dressing separate until just before serving to maintain the perfect crispness of the broccoli slaw.
