Creamy Dill Broccoli Slaw Recipe — Tangy Crunch in Minutes

This creamy dill broccoli slaw is a fresh twist on a classic creamy cucumber salad. Bright dill and a touch of lime give it a summery flavor, while shredded broccoli keeps it satisfyingly crisp. I often garnish with sliced fresh chiles and chives from the garden, though cilantro works nicely as an alternative.

Crunchy. And Then Some.

You can use shredded cabbage instead of broccoli slaw if you prefer, but broccoli stays crisp longer. If you make this with cabbage, dress only the portion you plan to serve right away so leftovers don’t become soggy.

I usually reach for a good-quality mayonnaise in this dressing. Use whichever mayo you like or have on hand.

Also try my creamy cucumber salad for a similar, refreshing side.
