Notes

  • If you want your dressing extra thick don't add the water. You can always add it later if you want to thin it out.Make sure your Brussels sprouts are shaved pretty finely. You want them to have some texture but not too chunky.Source: Brussels Sprouts Salad (my idea), dressing from Allrecipes3.2.2885
