Broccoli, Bleu Cheese, Apple Slaw

Ok, it's not Moroccan, but it sure is tasty!

Broccoli, Bleu Cheese, Apple Slaw
Serves 10-12

2 (12oz) pkgs broccoli slaw
½ bunch green onions, thinly sliced
¼ C chopped fresh parsley or more if you like
1 ½ tsp dried dill weed or fresh to taste
¾ C dried sweetened cranberries (I use Craisens)
1 red apple, cored & thinly sliced
1 Granny Smith apple, cored & thinly sliced
½ C crumbled bleu cheese
Prepared “lite” bleu cheese salad dressing
¾-1C toasted pecans

1. In a large salad bowl, mix broccoli slaw, green onions, parsley, dill & cranberries together.
2. Core apples & cut into very thin slices. You may toss these in a little orange or lemon juice to prevent discoloring. Add to broccoli mixture.
3. Crumble bleu cheese into salad. Toss w/ dressing.
4. To serve – mound salad in bowl or plate and sprinkle w/ toasted pecans
