Broccoli Cole Slaw

(So I can't spell! Blame it on the spell check which very obviously wasn't working))

Eat your broccoli!

It's so good for you!


But what a waste...those big pieces of stalk.

We all cut the florets and bake, steam, or boil, and toss the rest. Well? We do...don't we...





I decided that I would make a slaw with them instead of adding them to the organics cart.
Rather than get the food processor out, I tempted fate and used the grater. Added a little grated carrot for colour, the same seasonings I would use in a traditional cabbage slaw...and wham!

Broccoli Slaw

2 broccoli stalks, peeled and grated
1 small carrot, grated
1 2 Tbsp mayo
1 tsp sugar
1 - 2 tsp white vinegar

Mix it all together and let stand 10 or 15 minutes to allow the sugar to dissolve.
