Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad (Without Mayonnaise)
Report
Shaved Brussels Sprout salad has everything from sweet, salty, crunchy, tangy, and it’s so beautiful to serve! It’s the perfect salad or side dish for any fall or meal. This salad is super easy to make! You don’t need to cook the Brussels sprouts and it lasts a few days in the fridge making it perfect for meal prep lunches or as a make ahead weeknight side dish. This is my kind of salad and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
