Brussels Sprout Salad with a Bright Lemon Dressing
The favors of this salad are so good and they all blend so well. Never when I was younger would I have thought that one day I’d be eating RAW brussels sprouts but here I am :). The only way I can eat raw brussels sprouts though is when it’s like so, with a good dressing and the right additions.
How to Shred Brussels Sprouts
There are a few ways you can shred/shave the Brussels sprouts:
You can just thinly slice them up by hand using a sharp knife, but word of advice, watch your fingertips! Or you can use a mandolin (but personally I feel like this takes just as long as slicing them up by hand). Or you can use the slicing attachment you may have gotten with your food processor.
Slicing all those little Brussels sprouts up is the only thing that really takes much time with this salad – everything else is a total breeze. The thin slices though are a must, eating a whole raw Brussels sprout covered in dressing would just be weird, and awkward, and grossly crunchy…and just all wrong. These fine thin shreds are the perfect base for a salad, a delicious salad like this one!
