Notes
Customize this slaw based on the flavors you love:
- If you love spice: Add 1/2-1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes or drizzle with sriracha.
- If you love herbs: Add chopped scallions, more cilantro, chopped mint.
- If you love sweet slaw: Add 1-2 tbsp. honey or maple syrup to the dressing.
- Add more crunch: Sprinkle with peanuts, cashews, sesame seeds for more crunch.
- Make the slaw ahead of time and store covered in the fridge. Right before serving sprinkle some freshly chopped cilantro and any nuts or seeds you plan to add (optional)
- Alternatively if you need to prepare the slaw further ahead, you can mix the dressing up ahead of time (up to 5 days ahead) and shred the cabbage ahead. In a large bowl add the broccoli slaw and shredded cabbage and cover. The day of serving, chop the cilantro, add the dressing and stir well to fully coat the slaw.
