Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli slaw
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and sugar. Whisk these ingredients together until they form a smooth and creamy dressing.
- Add the 4 cups of broccoli slaw directly into the bowl with the prepared dressing.
- Gently fold and toss the broccoli slaw with the creamy dressing, ensuring that all the slaw is evenly coated. Use a spatula or large spoon to mix thoroughly.
- Sprinkle the chopped green onions over the salad and gently mix them into the slaw.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer to a serving dish.
- Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together and the slaw to absorb the dressing.
- Before serving, give the salad a quick stir to redistribute the dressing and garnish with additional green onions if desired.
Tips
- For the best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the dressing to fully integrate with the broccoli slaw.
- Use fresh, crisp broccoli slaw for maximum crunch and texture. If you can't find pre-packaged broccoli slaw, you can easily make your own by shredding broccoli stems.
- For a lighter version, substitute half the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt to reduce calories while maintaining creaminess.
- Want to add extra nutrition? Consider mixing in some sunflower seeds, sliced almonds, or dried cranberries for additional flavor and crunch.
- Make sure to whisk the dressing thoroughly to prevent sugar from settling at the bottom and ensure an even, smooth consistency.
