This recipe offers a delightful twist on the classic broccoli slaw, combining fresh ingredients with a creamy dressing for a perfect side dish.
Combine the broccoli slaw mix and chopped red onion in a large mixing bowl.
Chop the onion finely to ensure even distribution throughout the slaw.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning to your preference before mixing it with the slaw.
Pour the dressing over the slaw mix and toss until evenly coated.
Ensure all the vegetables are well coated with the dressing for maximum flavor.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
For best results, prepare the slaw a day in advance to enhance the flavor.
Before serving, sprinkle the sliced almonds on top for added crunch.
Toast the almonds lightly for a nuttier flavor and extra crunch.
