Updating this old favorite with some fresh new photography, to show off just how delicious it really is! ย This has remained one of our go-to side dishes year round (although it’s extra perfect in the spring & summer!)
ย 
We love the balance of fresh, crisp fruits and veggies with the creamy, tangy dressing. ย Recipe has been updated with the option of sliced almonds OR chopped walnuts as a mix-in: ย we love them both!
ย 

ย 
I have loved getting creative with my food concoctions lately, and it makes it SO much more fun having an in-home taste tester who also loves & appreciates healthy food. ย Dathan is the one who introduced me to Paleo, and is definitely a “good eater”… in both senses of the word: he eats healthy, and he eats a lot! ย 
ย 
ย 
It’s been fun to coming up with new recipes for us that are budget-friendly, tasty, and healthy!ย  This is one of my recent creations: broccoli apple slaw. ย I start off with a simple bag of broccoli slaw mix~ you can find it at Trader Joe’s, or check out the selection at your local grocery store. ย I then toss in a few ingredients, whisk up the quickest dressing of life, and the perfect summer side dish is done.
ย 
ย 
We love this with grass-fed hot dogs, salmon burgers, andย stuffed turkey burgers. ย This would also be the perfect light dish to bring to a barbecue or summer gathering… super light & fresh, and a great way to introduce your friends & family to Paleo! ย Show them that healthy eating can taste amazing too!
ย 
ย 
The recipe below is for those, like me, who prefer a light coating of dressing. ย If you like a heavier amount, just double the recipe for the dressing! ย You can always save any extra for your salads.
ย 
Hope you enjoy!
