Health and fertility benefits of Asian Broccoli Coleslaw

Broccoli is one of the non-starchy vegetables that has a very low glycemic index (GI), which is beneficial for reducing blood sugar levels. Broccoli is also a source of DIM (Diindolymethane). Diindolymethane is very effective in reducing the testosterone levels in the body, an action that would automatically curb male dominant features and regulate the estrogen levels in the system. Sesame seeds help with progesterone balance. Lignans found in in sesame seeds help to prevent excess estrogen production. Apple cider vinegar will improve your body's sensitivity to insulin (Reference: http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/27/1/281.full)

Ingredients

1/4 cup vegetable oil spread made with olive oil
2 blocks oriental ramen noodles
1/2 cup slivered almonds, chopped
12 oz broccoli coleslaw mix
6 cups coleslaw mix
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup sweetener
2 tbsps soy sauce
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion

Instructions

1. Melt the olive oil vegetable spread (like Fleischmann's) in a large skillet over medium heat.

2. Crush the ramen noodles into small pieces; stir the crushed noodles, almonds and sesame seeds into the melted spread. Toast until golden brown, stirring constantly. Set aside to cool completely.

3. Toss together the coleslaw mix and onions in a large bowl.

4. Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, Splenda, soy sauce and ramen noodle seasoning packets into a separate bowl. (Dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator.)

5. Pour the dressing over the coleslaw mix and toss to coat. This can be done a few hours before serving or over night to allow the coleslaw to absorb the flavor of the dressing.

6. Stir the noodle mixture into the coleslaw mixture right before serving.
