I love how easy and delicious this recipe is! Pistacios were too hard to find so I replaced with pecans and also tried with slivered almonds and both were great. I also added 1 large cubed Granny Smith apple for added crunch and tartness. I found that over time the salad becomes a tad bit soggy so hold back on some of the dressing at the beginning and add more if it needs it before you serve.
Good recipe. I added crushed pineapple real bacon bits and sunflower seed kernels used 1 cup mayo plus 1 T white vinegar and 1 T sugar instead of bottled dressing.

I love broccoli slaw and it is one way to "hide" the veggies! I also make another version using the slaw mix poppy seed dressing pineapple chunks raisins and sunflower seeds. YUM!
This is a wonderful salad. It tastes better the next day. I used broccili & bagges broc slaw.
Really delicious unique and a little more gourmet. The pistachios and dried cranberries (I substituted dried cherries) were creative additions that gave this such a different nice flavor. Not wanting to use a bottled dressing I used "Easy Delicious Old Fashioned Cole Slaw Dressing " also from this site. One recipe was just the right amount for this slaw recipe scaled down to four servings. No one at the dinner table tonight (including me) is a big fan of cole slaw but they (including me) sure liked this one!
Delicious as is - I wouldn't change a thing! I do recommend letting the slaw sit for severla hours before eating it....it really brings all of the flavors together.
This is a great side dish to take along when going to a family gathering. You can make it ahead and not have to worry about last minute preparations. I use one full 12 ounce jar of Marie's Cole Slaw dressing because it is fresh and very creamy it blends well.
Made this side dish for a cookout yesterday and it was a hit. I like the sweet and crunchy taste of this dish. I used a bottle of Marie's Coleslaw Dressing. This dish is tasty and easy to prepare.
The cranberries contrast so well with broccoli. I diced an apple as well.
