Needed dressing for a bag of broccoli slaw. This worked great with substitutions available in the house (pandemic). Used agave instead of honey and a little sour cream instead of buttermilk. If I hadnt been out of greek yogurt I would have used that instead. To thin it a little I added some apple cider vinegar ( we like our slaw tangy.) Sprinkled cranberry pepita salad toppings from costco. It was yummy.

Our new standard slaw. Delicious! Make sure you either use unsweetened cranberries OR cut the honey amount in half.

An over looked slaw, great flavours, easy to adapt and easily paired with barbecue anything.

pjg

made substitutions with what I had on hand. Red cabbage instead is savoy, Vidalia onion instead of green onions, and sour cream instead of buttermilk. Absolutely the best slaw recipe I’ve ever made - and I’ve made A LOT! The dressing is key,
