I can't wait to try this recipe, found it in a cookbook I received from my grandma's cookbook collection. I wouldn't use a bagged broccoli slaw, I'd rather cut up some fresh broccoli and use the florets instead, but I'd probably follow the rest of the recipe. My mom makes a great broccoli salad that uses the tops instead and I love it. I will have to post my results on here when I try it. :)

I used 1/2 T less oil and it worked out well.

Orange is not one of my favorite flavors, but this salad is very good. I used both raisins and dried cranberries and left out the almonds. I will make this again.

Excellent! But I just had to replace the raisins with Craisins for Thanksgiving :)

I don't know how to edit what I just wrote. I want to confess that I switched out the raisins for dried cranberries, and to be sure to add the almonds right befor serving, lest they get soggy.

<p>Wonderful! I added a small can of mandarin oranges (drained), and switched out the raisins for dried cranberries. You could add chicken or pork for protein, or even surimi, and adjust the dressing accordingly. But I made this as is (except for the fruit I added) and it was great. Be sure to add the almonds right before serving, lest they get soggy. Thanks!</p>

Very good! Not an overpowering taste, great with pulled pork sandwiches!
