Ingredients

24 ounces (2 12-ounce bags) broccoli slaw
½ red onion finely chopped
1¼ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1¼ teaspoons sugar
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl add broccoli slaw and chopped onion. Set aside.
24 ounces (2 12-ounce bags) broccoli slaw, ½ red onion
In a small mixing bowl combine mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Use a whisk to mix together.
1¼ cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, 1¼ teaspoons sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Pour sauce over the broccoli slaw and use tongs to “toss” the salad until it is well dressed.
Add additional salt and pepper to taste.
Refrigerate 30 minutes or until ready to serve.

Notes

Storage:

Leftover broccoli slaw can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. It’s also best to store it in the refrigerator between servings to keep it as fresh and crisp as possible.

Tips:

You should be able to find a bag of broccoli slaw at most grocery stores in the produce section.
The addition of some sweetened cranberries and walnuts would elevate the flavor and texture of this slaw.
You can double or even triple the dressing and store the extras in a mason jar in the fridge for later use.
Refrigeration is key for this salad. I recommend leaving it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, but a longer chill time will allow all of the ingredients to meld together. I love to let the slaw spend as much time soaking up the dressing as possible!
