Balsamic Broccoli Slaw

balsamic broccoli slawToday’s lunch was this lovely salad!  Crisp and oh so good!  This salad makes a great side and its the best for BBQs and parties  Even people who don’t like broccoli enjoy it.

I am not a huge coleslaw fan.  Mostly because of all the mayo most places drown it in. Broccoli slaw has a little more crunch, and the dressing is so light and delicious!  The cranberries really make this recipe though.  They bring out the tangy flavor of the balsamic vinegar and add that bit of sweetness.

As I’ve mentioned, I do most of my grocery shopping at Trader Joe’s.  I know that they can be hard to find in some states.  Not to worry, because most grocery stores carry all of these ingredients.  Especially Whole Foods or Sprouts.
