Ever since our last Zeal Dinner I’ve been craving this delicious, vegan, broccoli slaw. It’s the perfect salad for the Fall because it’s grounding, hearty and dense, which I appreciate this time of year. It’s so good that I’ve been eating it almost daily for the last week.
Zeal’s Bomber Broccoli Slaw is a great salad that you can make ahead of time because it keeps really well all week.
As we embark on another supported Conscious Cleanse I’m reminded of the importance of having a plan and a handful of cleanse staples at the ready when hunger strikes. Zeal’s Bomber Broccoli Slaw is definitely one that I’m adding to my staples list.
