💭 Angela's Pro Tips & Recipe Notes
- If using mayo, be sure to select a good quality brand for the best flavor. My favorite brands are Hellmann's (aka Best Foods to my west coast foodies), and Duke's.
- You can reduce the prep time even more by using pre-chopped broccoli florets and shredded carrots.
- You could eat your slaw right away, but it tastes best chilled. Plus, a little time in the fridge gives the flavors time to marry.
🥡 Storing
Keep your broccolini slaw in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Stir before serving.

❓ Recipe FAQs
Yes! This dish is perfect for making ahead and stores well in the fridge. However, you'll want to prepare it no sooner than the day before you need it, as it only stores well for about 4 days. It is awesome for leftovers throughout the week too!
I love adding cranberries and nuts to my slaw for a little added sweetness! You could also try bell peppers for that extra crunch! Go ahead and add any of your favorite veggies!
Yes, for sure! It is packed full of fiber, natural antioxidants, and vitamins. The broccolini itself is a great source of fiber, calcium, and potassium.

In the picture, it looks like there are cranberries. But they aren’t listed in the ingredients. Did I miss something?
