Ingredients
For the salad:
- 1 pound fresh Brussels sprouts (washed and dried)
- 1/4 cup red onion (diced)
- 1 cup sunflower seeds (salted)
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 3/4 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
For the dressing:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
Instructions
- Trim the ends off the brussels sprouts. Discard the ends. 1 pound fresh brussels sprouts
- Place the brussels sprouts in a food processor. Pulse about 5 times until the sprouts are shaved to the size you'd like. Place the shaved brussels sprouts in a bowl.
- Add the diced red onion, sunflower seeds, dried cranberries and parmesan cheese. 1/4 cup red onion, 1 cup sunflower seeds, 1 cup dried cranberries, 3/4 cup freshly shredded parmesan cheese
- In a small bowl, mix together the dressing ingredients. Pour the dressing over the salad and mix well. 1 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard, 1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
- The brussels sprouts will "soften" as the salad sits with the dressing. For a crunchier salad, serve immediately to within 1 hour of mixing. For a softer salad, allow the salad to marinate in the fridge with the dressing for about two hours.
