Ingredients
- 2 2 lb Brussels sprouts
- 1 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 3 3 cup Homemade Croutons see notes
The Dressing
- ¼ ¼ cup neutral-flavored mayonnaise
- 3 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 2 tablespoons lemon juice fresh is best!
- 1 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
- ½ ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 1 small clove garlic finely minced
- 1 1 pinch each: salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut 1 ½ lb of the brussels in half, put them on a baking sheet, and toss them in the olive oil and salt. Put the brussels into the oven and roast them for 15-20 minutes, until they are tender and brown in spots.
- Shave the remaining brussels by cutting them in half, laying the flat sides down, and then thinly slicing them.
- Make the dressing by whisking the dressing ingredients in a small-sized bowl.
- To assemble the brussels sprouts caesar salad, put the roasted brussels into a salad bowl. Add the shaved brussels and croutons and pour the dressing over the top. Toss well and then serve right away.

Notes
- Homemade croutons are simple to make and really take this salad to the next level. But if you're in a hurry or don't have bread on hand, you can also use store-bought. Another option that tastes great with this salad is to top it with crispy chickpeas!
- Homemade croutons
- The dressing is ⅓ portion of our easy caesar dressing. It's delicious so you may want to make the full portion so you'll have dressing on hand for other salads throughout the week.
