Broccoli Slaw

The guests will need a fork, but they’ll also need a bigger plate. The tiny broccoli florettes should be no larger than a thimble.

Ingredients

2 cups broccoli florettes, cut very small

2 cups broccoli stems, thinly julienned

1/2 cup green cabbage, finely shredded

1/2 cup red cabbage, finely shredded

1/2 cup carrot, shredded

1/4 cup red onion, finely shaved

 

Dressing

1 /2 cup red wine vinegar

1 /2 cup sugar

2 tsp Creole mustard

1 tsp horseradish

1 /2 cup Blue Plate® Mayonnaise

2 Tbsp sour cream

2 tsp lemon juice

1 tsp salt

1 /4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Bring one quart of lightly salted water to a boil.

Cook broccoli for 45 seconds, drain immediately and run under very cold water. Use a paper towel to dry excess moisture from the broccoli.

Combine all the vegetables in a mixing bowl and add the dressing.

 

Dressing

In a small stainless steel pot, combine the sugar and vinegar. Simmer slowly until the mixture forms a thick syrup.

While the mixture is cooking, combine the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl and blend well.

Slowly drizzle the vinegar mixture into the mayonnaise mixture.

Honey Bundt Cake

This bundt cake brings back memories of family gatherings on Bellewood Drive where sweets were as much a part of the celebration as the presents under the tree. The warm notes of cinnamon and honey make it a natural fit for holiday mornings or as the perfect finish to a Christmas feast. The pomegranate glaze adds a bright, tart finish that keeps things interesting. Make sure to grease every nook and cranny of your bundt pan thoroughly. Use butter and dust with flour for a clean release. Also, letting the cake cool for a solid twenty minutes before flipping is key to avoiding a sticky mess.
