SKINNY BROCCOLI SLAW SALAD RECIPE
I love a good broccoli slaw salad! Now, with being on Weight Watchers, I am always looking for skinny recipes of my favorites! I love that this recipe works out to be healthy but also has protein in it as well.

Typically, I think of salads like this in the summer months. But honestly, I love bringing this to holiday potlucks and my 4 Ingredient Skinny Coleslaw. Both help me know something with protein that will be there that I love to eat at gatherings!
WHAT IS WEIGHT WATCHERS?
When starting a new weight loss program or diet change, consult a doctor or physician about personal health concerns. It is a good idea to have blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and hormones checked at a physical before and during being on the WW program.
New to Weight Watchers?? Also known as WW, a weight loss program uses points assigned to food to track and lose weight. When you sign up, you take an assessment that will assign you a point value to eat daily and a weekly allowance. You can carry over 4 points from the day into your weekly budget, which is handy when you need more points.
I have been on Weight Watchers since 2011. They have had Points Plus Value, WW Smartpoints, Blue Plan, Green Plan, Purple Plan, WW Personal Points, and now Weight Watchers Points. The new Weight Watchers Simplified plan is the new program launched in November 2022, similar to previous plans like WW Smartpoints, with some color plans. ( You can see the Weight Watchers Zero Point Foods 2023 -> here)
No matter the WW plan, they work to help you learn healthy eating habits. I have hit lifetime goal weight several times but stopped operating the plan and tracking, so the weight does creep back on. You stay on as a lifetime member, working towards your goal. Head on over ->here to get a month for free.
WEIGHT WATCHERS BROCCOLI SLAW SALAD INGREDIENTS
Broccoli Slaw Kit– Mine was 12 ounces from Taylor Farms and had shredded carrots and cabbage.
Red Onion– You will dice this up to be mixed in; if you prefer, yellow or white onion can be used.
WEIGHT WATCHERS BROCCOLI SALAD DRESSING INGREDIENTS:
Greek Yogurt– This will be the substitute for mayo in coleslaw. You will use zero-fat Greek yogurt, but the bonus is that it will also have protein.
Apple Cider Vinegar-You can use white vinegar or other vinegar instead of apple cider vinegar; I wanted the taste of the apple cider paired up with the coleslaw.
Honey-You can use store-bought honey or local honey. My honey came from a friend on the Olympic Peninsula. Also, white granulated sugar can be used in substitution of honey.
**Agave syrup could also be used in place of the honey if you want to lower the points but it may affect the taste of the coleslaw.**

HOW TO MAKE SKINNY BROCCOLI SLAW DRESSING
In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, the honey, and the apple cider vinegar. I used a small whisk to make sure everything connected smoothly to make a creamy coleslaw mixture.
HOW TO MAKE HEALTHY BROCCOLI SLAW SALAD
Once the dressing is mixed, combine your broccoli slaw with the Greek yogurt broccoli slaw dressing and the red onions.
Allow to chill in the fridge before serving, or eat immediately.
