Broccoli Coleslaw Recipe
Description
This Broccoli Coleslaw features fresh broccoli cut into small florets with the stems julienned for texture variation. Toasted slivered almonds add crunch and a nutty note, while dried cranberries bring subtle sweetness. Finely chopped red onions add sharpness and color.
The dressing combines buttermilk with fresh lemon zest and juice, honey for sweetness, sea salt, and finely minced garlic, providing a creamy but tangy and bright coating for the vegetables. The ingredients are whisked together to create a balanced dressing.
Tossing the broccoli mixture with the lemon buttermilk dressing before serving allows the flavors to meld. This coleslaw works well as a fresh side dish alongside grilled or roasted meats or as a crunchy salad to brighten meals.
