Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 2 large carrots
- 1 cup red cabbage
- 3 stalks green onions
- 0.5 cup dried cranberries
- 0.3 cup sunflower seeds
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the broccoli florets thoroughly. Finely chop the florets into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and shred the carrots using a box grater or a food processor. Add the shredded carrots to the bowl with the broccoli.
Thinly slice the red cabbage and chop the green onions into small rounds. Add both to the mixing bowl with the other vegetables.
Add the dried cranberries and sunflower seeds to the bowl. Toss to combine all the ingredients evenly.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss thoroughly to coat all the ingredients evenly with the dressing.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the broccoli slaw for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, give the slaw a final toss and taste to adjust salt or pepper if needed. Serve chilled as a side dish or enjoy on its own.
