What is broccoli slaw?

Broccoli slaw is a mixture of broccoli stems, carrots, and cabbage. It’s sold in a bag in the produce aisle 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!

Shredded broccoli slaw is a nutritional powerhouse. For my Weight Watchers friends, each portion is only 2 points!

How to make healthy broccoli slaw

This skinny slaw is so easy, there’s really not much to say!

You don’t even need to dirty more than one bowl. Simply add broccoli slaw, parsley, mayonnaise, cider vinegar, and celery seed to a large glass bowl, stir until everything is mixed together.

Give it a little taste and season with a touch of salt and pepper.

I love this easy recipe because it actually gets a little better as it sits. It also tends to soften the slaw mixture just a bit.

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!
