Broccoli Salad

A healthy broccoli salad recipe with a creamy tahini dressing!

Summertime calls for fresh vegetables and refreshing salads, however sometimes leafy greens get a little boring. Coleslaw is always a popular summer BBQ staple, however, unfortunately, all that added mayonnaise dressing is not the best option for your waistline. This broccoli salad provides a nice big crunch while providing a daily dose of greens and satisfies that creamy craving. This recipe can be eaten right away or prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge allowing for the cabbage and broccoli to absorb more of the dressing, providing a coleslaw-like consistency.
