Brussels Sprout Salad Recipe
Description
The Brussels Sprout Salad Recipe uses halved Brussels sprouts and cubed butternut squash roasted with a light coating of olive oil to develop caramelized edges and tender interiors. Roasting at 350°F achieves deep green, crispy Brussels sprouts and soft squash in about 30 minutes. A roasted jalapeño and onion dressing adds depth and mild heat, enhancing the salad's complexity.
Pomegranate seeds provide a burst of tartness and juicy texture, while salted pumpkin seeds add crunch and a savory element that balances the dish. Serving the salad while warm highlights the freshly roasted vegetables and contrasts with the juicy seeds.
This combination makes for a vegetable-forward side or appetizer that presents varied textures and a layered flavor profile derived from roasting and the acidic dressing.
