Broccoli slaw salad with cranberries, almonds, and yogurt dressing

By á-7018

This is an excellent salad recipe. It keeps well and is a hit whenever I have served it.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup sliced raw almonds
• 1 12-oz package store-bought broccoli slaw
• 1/2 cup dried cranberries
• 3 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil
• 3 Tbs rice vinegar
• 3 Tbs agave nectar (or honey)
• 3 Tbs Greek yogurt
• 1 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1/4 tsp kosher salt
• 1/4 tsp fresh black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

1. In a small dry nonstick frying pan, toast the almonds over medium heat,
shaking the pan frequently, until just starting to brown. Remove from heat
and set aside to cool.

2. Add the broccoli slaw and cranberries to a large mixing bowl.

3. Combine remaining ingredients in a large measuring cup or mixing bowl.
Whisk together until the dressing is smooth and emulsified.

4. Pour the dressing over the broccoli slaw. Add the cooled almonds, and
stir well to combine. Let sit for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours,
stirring occasionally to redistribute the dressing that will settle on the
bottom of the bowl. (On warm days, refrigerate until ready to serve.)

5. Serve at room temperature or cool.
