How do you like your brussels sprouts?

Simply roasted is the most common answer!

While crispy and salty roasted brussels sprouts might be your go-to most of the time, try and switch it up with this light and healthy raw brussels sprouts salad.

Brussels sprouts and kale are first-class when it comes to salad making. They hold their firm texture even when tossed in dressing and refrigerated. This makes them ideal for make-ahead salads.

Layered with pistachios and parmesan cheese, shredded brussels sprouts are tossed in a subtly sweet honey dressing. It’s the perfect vegetable side dish and make a great addition to your Easter or Mother’s day menu.

It’s bright and light way to prepare brussels sprouts.

I’ll list the methods starting with the easiest and quickest way to the longer way.

  1. Use a Cuisinart fitted with a slicing blade. So fast.
  2. Use a mandoline. It’s a great kitchen tool, but be careful!
  3. With a sharp knife, slice each sprout in half and finely cut each piece into shreds. This probably will add 20 – 30 minutes to your prep time.

Step 3: Toss Shredded Brussels + Vinaigrette. Top with pistachios and parmesan cheese.
