Ingredients

1 bag broccoli slaw 12 oz
1 cup shredded red cabbage
1 cup matchstick carrots
1 cup walnut halves and pieces roughly chopped
1 large apple cored and diced
1/2 medium red onion diced

For the Dressing

2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
1/4 tsp kosher salt or MSG
1/8 tsp cracked black pepper or to taste

Instructions

To mix the dressing, add all ingredients to a small jar with a tight-fitting lid. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds, or until well combined. Alternatively, add all ingredients to a small bowl and whisk for 20-30 seconds or until well combined.
Open the bag of broccoli slaw and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Finish any prep work for the shredded cabbage, carrots (if not using pre-cut), and red onion and add to the bowl.
Core and dice the apple. Roughly chop or crush the walnut pieces, then add to the mixing bowl.
Drizzle the mixed dressing over the top, then use salad tongs to mix and toss the salad until everything is lightly coated. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, then serve immediately as a side dish or side salad.

Notes

If preparing ahead of time, mix all components for the salad and leave them undressed. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve then toss with the dressing.
