Ingredients

Broccoli florets (4 cups, chopped)
Carrots (2 medium, grated)
Red onion (1/2, thinly sliced)
Dried cranberries (1/2 cup)
Sunflower seeds (1/4 cup)
Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
Black pepper (1/4 teaspoon)
Dijon mustard (2 tablespoons)
Honey (2 tablespoons)
Apple cider vinegar (3 tablespoons)
Greek yogurt (1/4 cup)
Mayonnaise (1/4 cup)

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped broccoli florets, grated carrots, and thinly sliced red onion. Toss gently to mix.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined. This creamy dressing is the heart of your slaw, bringing all the flavors together.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss until every piece is well coated. Don't be shy—get in there and mix!
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld beautifully and the slaw to become refreshingly crisp.
Just before serving, sprinkle the sunflower seeds and dried cranberries over the top of the slaw for added crunch and sweetness. Toss gently to combine, ensuring the toppings are evenly distributed.
Serve chilled and enjoy the burst of flavors and textures!
