Tips
- • For the freshest flavor, use freshly shredded carrots and broccoli slaw instead of pre-packaged mixes. • Make sure to chill the slaw for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully. • For extra crunch, consider adding some toasted sunflower seeds or sliced almonds on top before serving. • If you prefer a lighter version, you can substitute Greek yogurt for half the mayonnaise. • This slaw can be prepared up to a day in advance, making it perfect for meal prep or entertaining. • Adjust the sweetness and tanginess by tweaking the amount of sugar and apple cider vinegar to suit your taste.
