Notes
Commentary:
The Trader Joe's Broccoli Slaw comes in a 12 oz bag it's broccoli stalks & carrots shredded to matchstick size. Mix with a coleslaw dressing & bingo! instant ready to serve broccoli slaw. Originally, I was making a fabulous jalapeno dip that could be served with chips, veggies, or put on a burger. Then I realized that I happened to have a couple bags of the Trader Joe's Broccoli Slaw and this combination would probably be a perfect slaw. And it is!

You just mix the 5 ingredients for the dressing together, then dump it on the broccoli slaw and blend well. Taste the dressing, and it's got some intense flavor and some heat. Mix it with all that broccoli, and it gets very toned down. Almost a classic, well-flavored slaw. If you want more heat, add another jalapeno or use the hot Winking Girl Tomatillo Salsa. Personally, I like this just the way I made it - just a really good, tangy slaw with a hint of heat. Great for that Labor Day BBQ! Hope you like it!
