This recipe combines the creaminess of avocados with the aromatic flavor of garlic and the subtle sweetness of coconut milk, making it a delightful twist on traditional slaw. It’s a perfect side dish or a light meal on its own.
Instructions:
- In a food processor or blender, combine the avocados, garlic cloves, vinegar, coconut milk, mustard, salt, and black pepper.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, creating your dressing. You can adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
- Shred the cabbage and broccoli if not done already. You can use a food processor, mandoline, or knife for this step.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the shredded cabbage and broccoli.
- Pour the avocado dressing over the shredded vegetables.
4. Mix Well:
- Using tongs or a large spoon, mix the dressing thoroughly with the shredded cabbage and broccoli until all the vegetables are evenly coated.
- Serve the Paleo broccoli slaw immediately for a fresh, crunchy texture. Alternatively, you can let it chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
- Use fresh garlic for a more robust flavor. Mince it finely to ensure it's evenly distributed throughout the slaw.
- You can adjust the quantity of mustard according to your taste. If you prefer a spicier kick, add a bit more.
- For a more colorful slaw, consider adding shredded carrots or purple cabbage.
- If you find the coconut milk too thick, you can thin it out with a small amount of water or additional vinegar.
- Ensure the cabbage and broccoli are finely shredded to make the slaw easier to mix and eat.
- Let the slaw sit for a bit before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
