If you ask me I would tell you that you can never eat too much gelato. Ask any doctor and they will disagree. But if you are going to be in Italy for two weeks you might as well search for the best gelato by having a different flavour every day. When you return sanity has to prevail so this recipe for a Roasted Broccoli Slaw is a super healthy attempt to balance out all that sugar and cream of the last two weeks.

Roasted Broccoli Slaw with Feta

The original recipe comes from Yummy Beet and Allison’s photos of the salad looked so good that I could not resist making it. I did not deviate from the recipe too much but replaced the pine nuts in the recipe with a mix of  sunflower and pumpkin seeds. The salad is a deliciously different way to enjoy broccoli and makes a welcome change from all the roasted cauliflower recipes out there.

You can keep the broccoli raw and then just toast the nuts and make the salad completely vegan by omitting the cheese. The Roasted Broccoli Salad will also make a great base salad for you to add some protein of your choice. Enjoy!
