Here's a salad I put together quickly with what I had in the fridge.
You can use a bottled coleslaw dressing or your favourite homemade coleslaw dressing.
- 2 cups raw broccoli chopped
- 1 large apple cored and chopped (I leave the peel on for added colour and the nutrition)
- 1/2 red pepper cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1/2 yellow pepper cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 toasted pine nuts or almonds (not pictured)
- 1/4-1/2 cup coleslaw dressing - bottled or homemade. (a poppyseed dressing might be a nice option)
- Combine all salad ingredients in serving bowl.
- Add dressing and toss.
- Refrigerate until serving.
Oh what a delightful combination of broccoli and apples, and a creamy vinaigrette dressing! I shall save this recipe, I love broccoli salads :)
ReplyDeleteBroccoli salads are always delicious and this one looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteMade this today with a few minor changes to use up what I had on hand - dried cranberries instead of raisins, walnuts instead of pine nuts, 2 whole peppers instead of 2 halves, and poppy seed dressing. WOW it was good!
ReplyDeleteI sent the kids a picture and have been asked to make it again when they next come over for dinner :D
Have made it three times and I added grated smoked cheddar cheese to it - about 1/4 cup. Used cranberries as well instead of raisins and sunflower seeds instead of nuts. Rave reviews!
