Made this recipe exactly as you wrote it and it was delicious. Unlike many other commenters, though, I didn’t love the dressing on it’s own, so would probably try another version next time.

I substituted sunflower for nuts, used no fat mayo and skipped the buttermilk (allergic) and it’s delish, perfect alongside ribs. I wasn’t a broccoli fan until I tried this recipe.

This was a huge favorite at a barbecue this past weekend. I’m fighting off the boyfriend for leftovers. :)

Just made this with toasted chopped pecans (I was out of sliced almond) and it was fantastic.

I want to thank you, for posting the ONLY recipe in which I like broccoli. I am so happy I can finally eat some! I feel healthier already. :)

Made this this weekend for a bbq and it was a huge hit. Followed the recipe exactly. My sister and brother-in-law kept the left overs and apparently ate them for breakfast. Who knew coleslaw was breakfast fare? We all loved it. I cheated and used bag broccoli slaw mix. Worked perfectly! Thanks for a great recipe!

Planned out dinner around this salad, arrived home from supermarket to discover I’d forgotten buttermilk and our mayo was past it’s use-by date. A few googles later and I had whipped up my first ever batches of homemade mayonnaise and buttermilk (soy buttermilk no less – which worked out better as we don’t handle lactose well). So I’m not sure how closely my version tastes to the recipe (esp as I only had olive oil for the mayo which made it very olive-y), but my partner wolfed it and he dislikes mayo. It is delicious and having recently found out I am pre-diabetic it is sure to be one of my staples. What I love most is that a serving goes a long way to the daily 2 cups of vegetables quota compared to a plate of flimsy leaves. And it so filling – with the sweet potato & white bean soup we made to go with it, we are stuffed! Thanks SK.

I’ve already made this twice this weekend. It’s even better, I have to say, with dried cherries than with cranberries, and I used plain yogurt instead of buttermilk. Already looking forward to lunch tomorrow…

I have made this several times since you posted it, and I have to say it is the best slaw I have ever had. It is a huge hit at our house. I just can’t get enough of it!
