This crunchy savory Broccoli Slaw Recipe with ginger and toasted almonds, and just a bit of sweetness, is a tasty addition to any meal, and oh so easy to prepare!
Family and church potlucks always bring about an array of dishes. There always seems to be those certain dishes that show up every single time. And I do like that. Those dishes are the ones that I look forward to the most. Funny thing is that they are all side dishes. It’s all about the side dishes, people. Whether it is green bean casserole, macaroni and cheese, pasta salad or broccoli salad, I never tire of them. Never.
This Broccoli Slaw is one of those side dishes that has quickly become a regular attendee at any potluck or cookout. There’s a good reason for that. It’s savory and crunchy and pretty nutritious too! And side dish making doesn’t get much easier than this recipe either. It’s super easy. Tasty and easy? That’s a good combo any day.
As I mentioned (over and over again) this Broccoli Slaw is such an easy side dish to prepare and can be put together a day ahead of time. Quickly whisk the dressing together, add the remaining ingredients, and toss to coat. That’s it! So if you have a potluck dinner, picnic, cookout or are just in the mood for a tasty crunchy side Broccoli Slaw would be perfect!

I love this salad! It looks deliciously refreshing.
Yum–this sounds delicious!!

Live this salad!! Added raisins that someone suggested and pistachios instead of almonds since my husband is allergic.
Was delish – I followed the recipe pretty closely – only thing is the dressing was too tangy for our tastes, so I added a bunch more mayo, and we enjoyed it very much. I used a bag of Broccoli Slaw mix, and want to mention that the entire batch of dressing would cover much more than one bag.
This is the best slaw I’ve ever had (and I left out the brown sugar)!
I used broccoli slaw mix and subbed vegan mayo, apple cider vinegar and raw almonds. Raisins sweetened it up, but it tastes good without them, too.
I am going to make this regularly. Thank you!
