Asian Broccoli Slaw is the perfect recipe for your next potluck or summer gathering. The Broccoli Slaw Dressing has a sweet tangy flavor made from a combination of soy sauce, peanut butter, and ginger.
I first had a version of this slaw at my wedding shower. I can’t believe that was almost 9 years ago! Am I aging myself? Maybe but wow, time flies and the days of my early 20s seem like a lifetime ago. It funny because I can still remember the entire menu my best friend and I made together. Ah, memories.
Ok, ok, snap back to the recipe. Normally, Asian slaw is made from traditional cabbage slaw mixtures. I sometimes add some napa cabbage into my recipe, but mostly I like to avoid slicing a ton of vegetables. I wanted something easy so this recipe uses a pre-mixture slaw. However, most store-bought cabbage slaws are so boring! I love that the broccoli slaw has much more carrots, purple cabbage, and, and color. Mix in some edamame beans and it is completed with a simple ginger dressing.
This slaw is everything I love about spring and summer foods, especially since I get to grow most of them in my garden this year! Yes, I am super excited about gardening. First, because I literally moved over 1500lbs of soil yesterday to a new plot. I get the whole feeling powerful and accomplished thing after that, but mostly, my body is just groaning and I don’t want to move off the couch. I’m thinking that I may try broccoli again this year, and then I could make this recipe from my garden. How cool would that be? Do you garden and can give any advice? I would totally accept anything as this year I really want to be more successful than last year’s disaster.

The salad looks so great! And it’s also easy to try. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
Can I use brown sugar instead of honey?? Thanks . . sounds easy and delicious.
Thank you, Linda! I’ve used agave nectar before but never thought to use brown sugar, to be honest. The brown sugar should melt fine in the dressing and I doubt it would alter the taste significantly, but I have not made it this way personally. Since you make the dressing before topping the broccoli slaw, it would be easy to test and you aren’t out a lot of ingredients. Let me know how it turns out.
