Ingredients

for the salad:
  • 13 ounces (380g) Brussels sprouts
  • 1/4 cup pomegranate arils
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup flaked almonds
  • 1 medium apple such as Honeycrisp or Gala
  • 1/4 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup shaved pecorino cheese or parmesan
  • salt and pepper to taste
for the dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing: Add all the dressing ingredients to a medium jar. Close the jar and shake well until all the ingredients are well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Toast the almonds: Spread the almonds in an even layer on a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 8-9 minutes or until light golden brown. You can also toast them in a dry pan but they are more uniformly browned when baked in the oven.
  3. Prepare the remaining ingredients: Wash and dry Brussels sprouts. Cut off the bottoms and remove the discolored outer leaves. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half and then into very thin slices, either using a large sharp knife or with a mandoline or food processor fitted with the slicing attachment. Cut the apple into small cubes and roughly chop the cranberries. De-seed a pomegranate. Shave the cheeses: cut them into very thin strips using a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife.
  4. Assemble: Add all the ingredients to a large bowl and pour in the dressing. Toss until well combined. Season well with salt and pepper. Add more lemon juice if necessary.
  5. Serve right away or better: let stand for 1-2 hours for the flavors to meld together and for the brussel sprouts to soften.
  6. Enjoy!
