What is broccoli slaw?
Broccoli slaw is a mixture of raw broccoli stalks, stems, carrots, and red cabbage. It’s sold in a bag in the produce aisle at the grocery store and when it comes to easy meal prep, you can’t beat it.
Because as much as I love this healthy broccoli slaw recipe, I’m not about to shred all that produce!
If you’d rather shred your own broccoli slaw in your food processor, that’s totally up to you!
Shredded broccoli slaw is a nutritional powerhouse. For my Weight Watchers friends, each portion is only 2 points.
Ingredients
- broccoli slaw mix
- fresh parsley
- mayonnaise
- apple cider vinegar
- whole celery seed
- Sea salt and black pepper

I love this easy recipe because it actually gets a little better as it sits, so it’s just as delicious the next day. It also tends to soften the slaw mixture just a bit.
It’ll keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator several days.

In my opinion, creamy slaw recipes are perfect for pairing with pull apart slider recipes! Anything off the grill like honey mustard grilled chicken is delicious, too!
It’s an awesome side for lunches, a dish to take to a group potlucks or picnic or as an add on to my Pulled Pork Lettuce Wraps or Air Fryer bacon wrapped hot dogs.
