Broccoli Pecan Slaw
Broccoli Slaw Ingredients:
1 bag Trader Joe's organic broccoli salad mix (this is shredded broccoli stems with some carrot shreds)
1/2 c. toasted maple pecans (recipe is below)
1/4 c. dried cranberries
1/3 c. thinly sliced red onion
Directions: Place broccoli salad mix, pecans and cranberries and onion in a salad bowl. Add dressing as desired and toss.
Easy Poppy Seed Dressing (click here for recipe)
Toasted Maple Pecans:
1 c. raw pecan halves
1 T. butter
3 T. real organic maple syrup (not maple-
flavored pancake syrup)
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a heavy skillet (I use cast iron).
2. Add pecans and stir to coat on all sides.
3. Add maple syrup, keeping the heat at medium. The syrup should bubble lightly.
4. Carefully continue to stir till maple syrup begins to dry onto pecans, watching that mixture does not dry out too fast and burn due to the pan being too hot.
5. Remove from the pan and spread the mixture on a plate, separating nuts, to let cool.
6. Store in zipper baggie or use as directed in recipe.
