    Honey Mustard Broccoli Slaw that’s Better Than Coleslaw

    2
    By Sarah Hatfield on June 24, 2021 Dairy-Free Recipes, Salad, Sarah's Recipes

    Here is a delicious, easy honey mustard broccoli slaw recipe for your next cookout, family reunion, or goodbye picnic for your dear friends who are moving several states away. It’s easy to throw together with some simple short cuts, and has a firmer bite than cabbage, which I prefer.

    Honey Mustard Broccoli Slaw that’s Better Than Coleslaw

    So why the broccoli slaw instead of cabbage? I love cabbage. I love it roasted, boiled, stuffed cooked in soups, in casseroles, stir frys. But… I don’t love coleslaw. I know! I’ll eat it, of course, and I definitely enjoy some recipes – like mom’s! My children, who will eat huge servings of roasted cabbage, don’t care for coleslaw either. Enter this easy, kid-pleasing broccoli slaw recipe that I found in a magazine (Woman’s Day?) years and years ago.

    My children have brand loyalty regarding very few items, but honey mustard is definitely one of them. If it isn’t Ken’s Steak House Honey Mustard, it isn’t honey mustard (Editor’s Note: for a dairy-free and vegan honey mustard dressing without high fructose corn syrup, try Annie’s Lite Honey Mustard). The closest homemade version I’ve made is adapted from Family Feasts for $75 a Week. If you want a mayonnaise-free dressing for your broccoli slaw, Alton Brown’s honey mustard dressing is also good.

    Author: Sarah Hatfield
    Recipe type: Salad
    Cuisine: American
    Serves: 6 servings
    Ingredients
    Broccoli Slaw
    • 1 (12-ounce) bag julienned broccoli (see Slaw Note below)
    • ½ cup honey mustard dressing, such as Ken's Steak House Honey Mustard or the following recipe
    • Celery salt, to taste
    Honey-Mustard Dressing
    • ½ cup mayonnaise or Vegenaise (for egg-free / vegan; see Mayo Note below)
    • ¼ cup spicy brown mustard
    • ¼ cup honey (sub agave nectar for strictly vegan)
    • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    Instructions
    Broccoli Slaw
    1. At least one hour before serving, toss together the broccoli coleslaw and ½ cup of the honey mustard dressing.
    2. Season to taste with the celery salt. Refrigerate until serving.
    Honey-Mustard Dressing
    1. In a medium bowl, whisk all ingredients together until smooth. It makes approximately 1 cup.
    2. Store leftovers, tightly covered, in a refrigerator for up to 2 months, unless you made it with homemade mayonnaise.
    Notes
    Slaw Note: Bagged broccoli slaw is now available in most large grocery stores. But you can also make your own with broccoli stalks (it's a great no waste recipe!) and a small to medium carrot. Simply julienne each.

    Mayo Note: Since the dressing is mayonnaise-based, this is the time to use store-bought mayo to reduce the risk of food spoilage. Store-bought mayonnaise is high in acid and the eggs are pasteurized, making it a safe choice. Or you can avoid eggs all together and use a vegan mayonnaise, such as Vegenaise.
