Broccoli Slaw

Delicious way to eat your broccoli!

2 heads of broccoli, chop florets only into small pieces
handful of almonds, toasted and chopped
handful of dried cranberries
2-3 tbsp. finely diced red onion
1-1/2 tbsp. cider vinegar
sea salt
fresh ground pepper
pinch of sugar
200 ml (almost a cup) yogurt

Chop broccoli and toast almonds. Once almonds are toasted roughly chop them. Finely dice red onion and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes in vinegar, salt, pepper and sugar. Letting it sit reduces the raw onion flavour so the onion does not overpower the other ingredients in the salad. After the onion has sat for a bit add in the yogurt and mix well. Mix the dressing with the broccoli, almonds and cranberries, let sit in the fridge for at least 15 minutes before eating.
