When the weather warms up I am a big fan of salads with tons of raw veggies. This broccoli slaw is one of my favorite ways to prepare raw broccoli with a tangy and probiotic-rich coconut-yogurt-based dressing. In just a few minutes you can have a nutrient-dense, flavorful salad ready to be eaten by itself (I can easily go for a big portion for lunch most days!) or with a side protein like roasted chicken or steak.
Substitution note: you can also use raw, shredded Brussels sprouts or cabbage here! Enjoy!
Place the broccoli, carrot, onion, and apricots in a bowl and set aside while you make the dressing.
To make the dressing, place the yogurt, avocado, lemon juice, oil, garlic, salt, and water in a blender and blend until combined. If the consistency is too thick, add a tablespoon or two of water to thin to desired consistency.
Combine the salad and dressing and toss before serving.

Hi Pamela, sorry to hear! Have you tried making your own coconut yogurt? I know there are many AIP bloggers with recipes.
Great recipe, I’m going to try it today! Thank you! I have 2 of your cookbooks and love all the recipes.
Let me know how it goes, Julie!
I made this last night and loved it! I shredded the carrots instead of chopping them, and I also added chopped kale to it.
Smart addition with the carrots, Alicia!
I have made this recipe multiple times in the last few months. It is so tasty and satisfying, it also lead to me finding a non dairy yogurt I really enjoy.
I’m so happy it was a win for you, Nellie!
