Broccoli Slaw Salad
Posted by Aggies Kitchen on September 23rd, 2009. Filed under: Aggie's Kitchen Original, Healthy Meals, Salad, Vegetarian.
I made this salad one day using a little shortcut of bagged shredded Broccoli Slaw that you can find in your grocery store produce section. To it I added, some grape tomatoes, chickpeas, crumbled blue cheese and balsamic vinegar. It doesn’t take long and it will definitely satisfy your taste buds. And bonus… its good for you, like a good salad should be.
Note: If you aren’t a fan of blue cheese, try it with gorgonzola, it’ a little milder and equally delicious. I used Ile de France’s St. Agur blue cheese recently for this salad and wow, my taste buds were singing! Good stuff!

This is a very nice salad. We often have salad with homemade bread and soup for dinner. Your salad would pair well with almost any soup. Nice idea for busy days.

What a great idea for broc slaw! And, um, how about if I use both blue and gorgonzola. I'm bad that way!

I buy this all the time. It's a great switch between my usual spinach salad.
I like your additions.
