Creamy Broccoli Coleslaw
Ingredients
- 1 cup red cabbage, shredded (about ⅛ head)
- 1 cup broccoli florets, cut into small stalks
- ½ cup raisins
- ¼ cup matchstick carrots
- ½ cup coleslaw dressing
Instructions
- Toss all ingredients in a small bowl. Serve immediately.
- Hack: Cabbage, broccoli and carrot mixture can be made ahead and stored in a tightly sealed bag or container for up to 5 days. Add raisins and dressing when ready to serve.
- Hack: Check the produce department of your local grocery store for pre-cut broccoli florets to avoid having to buy an entire head. You may also be able to find them in the salad bar.
- Hack: Ask the produce clerk to cut a head of cabbage into wedges so you’ll only have to buy what you need. They’ll wrap the leftover pieces and put it back on the shelf for sale.
- Hack: Matchstick carrots can be found in the packaged section of the produce department or on the salad bar. Freeze any leftover carrots for use in cooking.
