    PER SERVING (1/2 of recipe, 1 heaping cup): 148 calories, 3g fat, 610mg sodium, 24.5g carbs, 6g fiber, 10g sugars, 8g protein -- PointsPlus® value 4*

    Prep: 5 minutes
    Cook: 15 minutes

    One 12-oz. bag (4 cups) dry broccoli cole slaw
    1 cup low-fat creamy tomato soup (like Amy's Chunky Tomato Bisque) or canned crushed tomatoes
    1 tsp. chopped garlic, or more to taste
    Dash onion powder, or more to taste
    Dash each salt and black pepper, or more to taste
    Dash crushed red pepper, or more to taste
    3 tbsp. reduced-fat Parmesan-style grated topping, divided
    Bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. Add slaw and 1/4 cup water. Stirring occasionally, cook until water has evaporated and slaw has softened slightly, about 5 - 8 minutes.

    Add soup/tomatoes, garlic, spices, and 2 tbsp. grated topping. Stir and continue to cook until hot, about 3 - 4 minutes.

    Season to taste with additional spices, if you like. Top with remaining 1 tbsp. grated topping. Enjoy!

    It takes amazing - like a good pasta. I used extra grated cheese. With the leftovers, I reheated in the skillet and added mushrooms.. OMG.. so good!

    added to whatever you make, soup salads, frittata...I've gotten stuck with it a few times after buying it for a "failed" recipe I have in mind. I added to mac n cheese for the kids or pasta for me ..Im just saying if throwing it away is the only other option then just oss some in any meal youre having...it taste great by itself as a salad with asian ginger salad dressing also yummmmm
  • Just eat it straight out of the bag. That's what I do.

    I generally add it into my salads... but I did see a couple egg roll recipes on hungrygirl.com that use broccoli slaw. I'm interested to see what other people say too!

    Bump. I usually use it for Hungry Girl's Broccoli Bacon Ranch Slaw but I want to use it in other things.

    You can add a peanut dressing to it. It is yummy. Or you could put it on a fish taco (mahi mahi) or a regular taco for that matter. Maybe a ground turkey taco? I add mine to my regular salad leaves to add extra texture...

    I eat it with Trader Joes spicy peanut vinagrette on top, along with fresh clinantro, fresh basil, and some peanuts.

    I eat it with tuna fish in it...it tastes like a tuna salad

    or you can saute it with some olive oil and garlic....yummy!!
  • Great with lite coleslaw dressing. Stays crispy.

    I also use it in a ground beef/napa cabbage stir fry and, again, it stays crispy.
  • I add to the whole bag about 1/4 cup or more to taste of dill pickle relish and two tablespoons of reduced fat Kraft Four Cheese Dressing. Mix it well and makes a great side dish.

    I usually just eat it straight out of the bag or with a chicken breast, but some of these recipes look yummy
