I love broccoli slaw and this looks delicious. I think I would even add some cauliflower in there too. Would make a nice dish in the summer.

I feel foolish but what is broccoli slaw? I see it on your ingredients list and I gather it isn't broccoli? This looks delicious, regardless!

This looks delicious and very summery. I especially like the addition of the apples, sounds perfect.
