Thanks Ellen, it is a great salad to get a full gamut of super foods in one dish.
Are you sure that is shredded Broccoli, it looks like courgette/Zuchini to me!
Hi Dawn, yes that is shredded broccoli, not sure why you ask, if I had used zucchini, I would have called it that!
I just bought a bag of hemp seeds for smoothies. I love the idea of adding them to this broccoli slaw.
Chia seeds are great on all kinds of salad, I sprinkle them on my cereal, on peanut butter toast. Such an easy way to get extra nutrients.
Where do you buy Chia seeds? I have never heard of them.
Diana I get mine at Costco, but any health food market should carry them.
