BROCCOLI SLAW SALAD WITH CRANBERRIES, ALMONDS AND YOGURT DRESSING RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Broccoli Slaw Salad with Cranberries, Almonds and Yogurt Dressing Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by MJH

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup sliced raw almonds
1 12-oz package store-bought broccoli slaw
1/2 cup dried cranberries
3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
3 Tbsp rice vinegar
3 Tbsp agave nectar (or honey)
3 Tbsp Greek yogurt
1-1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp fresh black pepper

Steps:

  • In a small dry nonstick frying pan, toast the almonds over medium heat, shaking the pan frequently, until just starting to brown. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. Add the broccoli slaw and cranberries to a large mixing bowl. Combine remaining ingredients in a large measuring cup or mixing bowl. Whisk together until the dressing is smooth and emulsified. Pour the dressing over the broccoli slaw. Add the cooled almonds, and stir well to combine. Let sit for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours, stirring occasionally to redistribute the dressing that will settle on the bottom of the bowl. (On warm days, refrigerate until ready to serve.) Serve at room temperature or cool.

Tips:

  • For a classic broccoli slaw, use a combination of green and purple broccoli florets.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the broccoli and almonds by hand.
  • To make the dressing, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  • Add the broccoli, almonds, cranberries, and dressing to a large bowl and toss to coat.
  • Serve the slaw immediately or chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish the slaw with fresh cranberries and chopped almonds before serving.
