Cheery Cherry-Blue Cheese Broccoli Slaw image

Try this blue cheese broccoli slaw with cheery cherries for a combination of sweet and crunchy and salty and creamy that is just what you were looking for. The recipe is very friendly to substitutions/omissions. It would also be good with dried cranberries (or even raisins!) and feta. You can eat this immediately, but it's much better if you let it sit, covered, in the refrigerator for several hours before serving. Yum!

This slaw is so easy to make and always a hit at potlucks. I usually add a little bit of crushed walnuts for extra crunch.

I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, but I really enjoyed this slaw. The cherries and broccoli balance out the strong flavor of the cheese.

I used dried cherries instead of fresh, and they worked just fine. This is a great recipe to have in your back pocket for when you need a quick and easy side dish.

This slaw was a bit too sweet for my liking. I think I would have preferred a more savory dressing.

I found the dressing to be a bit too tart for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll try using less vinegar next time.

This slaw was a refreshing change from the usual mayonnaise-based coleslaw. The cherry and blue cheese flavors paired well together, and the broccoli added a nice crunch.
