Quick Broccoli Slaw Food

THE BEST BROCCOLI SLAW

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and vinegar.
• Place the craisins in a bowl of hot water for 5 minutes or until they plump up, then drain.
• In a large bowl, combine the broccoli slaw, apple, nuts, bacon and craisins. Then fold in the dressing and mix until everything is evenly coated.
• Serve immediately. If you are not serving right away, save the bacon to put in right before serving and chill until you are ready to serve then stir in the bacon.

CATHY'S QUICK STIR-FRIED BROCCOLI SLAW SIDE DISH

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in large skillet or wok.
• Add garlic. Sautee garlic slightly, infusing oil with garlic flavor. Monitor heat carefully to avoid burning.
• Add broccoli coleslaw, and stir fry until crisp-tender. (I cheated and put the cover on my skillet for a little while to speed things along with a little steam).
• Add soy sauce and splenda, and continue to cook until splenda is disolved and liquid is absorbed. Taste test, and determine whether or not you'd like to add more splenda, soy sauce, or salt and pepper. Adjust seasonings accordingly.
• Place in serving bowl, and top with toasted pine nuts. Toss slightly, but no so much that pine nuts drop all the way to the bottom of the bowl.
• Note: To toast pine nuts, I placed them in a heavy pan, over medium-low heat, and tossed and shook the pan to keep them moving, until they started to show some browning and until they started to smell toasted and more intense.

INCREDIBLE BROCCOLI SLAW RECIPE (5 MINUTES OR LESS)

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients. I like to do this in the bowl I plan to serve this in.
• Add the broccoli slaw mix and gently toss it all together. Be patient and give it a minute if the dressing doesn't look like enough (it is!)-the broccoli will start to release some water and it will all come together into a creamy slaw after a minute or so. Refrigerate until it's time to serve.
• This slaw is best the day you make it, but it keeps well in the refrigerator (covered), up to 3 days. Cabbage-based slaw keeps in the refrigerator for about two days.

QUICK PICKLED ASIAN SLAW

Steps:

• Toss the cabbage, cucumber and carrots together in a heatproof bowl, then set aside.
• Bring the vinegars, sugar and salt to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour the vinegar mixture over the cabbage mixture, tossing to make sure all the veggies are covered. Let sit for 15 minutes. Use the slaw to add flavor to your favorite Asian bowl or sandwich. Vegetables can be kept in their pickling liquid in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
