Ingredients
  

4 cups fresh broccoli slaw (or finely shredded broccoli)

1 cup shredded carrots

1/2 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced

1/2 cup green onions, finely chopped

1 cup creamy dressing (store-bought or homemade variant)

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (for a touch of sweetness)

1/4 cup sunflower seeds (for a delightful crunch)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, add the broccoli slaw, shredded carrots, thinly sliced red cabbage, and finely chopped green onions. Use tongs or a spatula to toss the ingredients together until they are evenly combined.

    In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the creamy dressing, apple cider vinegar, and honey or agave syrup until the mixture is smooth and homogenous. If opting for a store-bought dressing, choose one that complements the vegetables well, such as ranch or a yogurt-based option.

      Drizzle the dressing mixture over the slaw in the large bowl. Use your tongs to toss everything together gently, ensuring that all the vegetables are thoroughly coated with the creamy dressing.

        Season the slaw with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences, mixing well to distribute the seasoning throughout the slaw.

          Sprinkle the sunflower seeds evenly over the top of the slaw. Give it one final gentle toss to incorporate the seeds while preserving their crunch.

            For optimal flavor, cover the slaw and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully, resulting in a more delicious dish.
