Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12-ounce) package broccoli slaw* OR 4 cups shredded broccoli stems + 1 shredded carrot
OR 4 cups combo of shredded cabbage + broccoli slaw (or any slaw mix)
1/2 cup Veganaise (OR your favorite mayo)
1.5 tablespoons honey (OR white sugar)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
a few spins freshly ground black pepper (about 1/8 teaspoon)

Steps:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients. I like to do this in the bowl I plan to serve this in.
  • Add the broccoli slaw mix and gently toss it all together. Be patient and give it a minute if the dressing doesn't look like enough (it is!)-the broccoli will start to release some water and it will all come together into a creamy slaw after a minute or so. Refrigerate until it's time to serve.
  • This slaw is best the day you make it, but it keeps well in the refrigerator (covered), up to 3 days. Cabbage-based slaw keeps in the refrigerator for about two days.
