How to Make Broccoli Slaw With Just 3 Ingredients

If you like broccoli and like coleslaw then you will love broccoli slaw. In fact, even those who don't care much for broccoli may enjoy this simple three ingredient dish. If you traditionally serve coleslaw with your Easter ham try this for a refreshing change.

Many cooks may not like the idea of using a prepared coleslaw dressing but the Marzetti original coleslaw dressing has just the right amount of sweetness to give this broccoli slaw a sweet yet tangy taste. This broccoli slaw will take just minutes to prepare and is the perfect side dish to serve at home or at your next potluck or picnic.

Instructions

Things You'll Need

• 16 ounce package broccoli slaw
• 1 cup Marzetti original coleslaw dressing
• 1/3 cup dried cranberries (craisins)
• optional: 2 Tablespoons sunflower seeds, shelled

1. Empty broccoli slaw into a large bowl.

2. Add one cup of the Marzetti original slaw dressing, mix to blend.

3. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup dried cranberries (craisins).

4. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to blend. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons shelled sunflower seeds (optional).

5. Stir before serving.

Tips & Warnings

• Remember less is more! You may think there is not enough dressing but after a few hours in the refrigerator the broccoli slaw will begin to shrink a little bit, giving the broccoli slaw more liquid. If you think it needs more coleslaw dressing wait until just before serving.

• You will find broccoli slaw mix, which is a blend of shredded broccoli, red cabbage and shredded carrots in the produce section of your grocery store. I use Dole broccoli slaw. You will probably also find the Marzetti Original Slaw dressing in the produce section with the other refrigerated dressings.

• Try this with your holiday ham at Easter or Christmas.
