Our family absolutely loves broccoli, so I'm so happy there's finally a slaw mix in stores that uses broccoli stems. I like this slaw best after 20 minutes or so to allow the flavors to meld. -Donna Marie Ryan, Topsfield, Massachusetts

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound broccoli florets (from 1 1/2 pounds broccoli stalks), thinly sliced and then roughly chopped (see photos)
1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds or slivered almonds
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese (optional)
1/3 cup dried cranberries or dried tart cherries, chopped
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey
1 medium clove garlic, pressed or minced
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Steps:

  • Toast the sunflower seeds: Pour the sunflower seeds into a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently (careful, they'll burn!), until the seeds are turning golden on the sides, about 5 minutes. Pour the toasted seeds into a large serving bowl.
  • Add the chopped broccoli, onion, cheese and cranberries to the serving bowl. Set aside.
  • In a 1-cup liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine all of the dressing ingredients (olive oil, vinegar, mustard, honey, garlic and salt). Whisk until the mixture is well blended.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad and stir until all of the broccoli is lightly coated in dressing. I highly recommend letting the salad marinate for at least 20 minutes, or even overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Divide the salad into individual bowls and serve. Leftovers will keep well for 3 to 4 days in the fridge, covered.
