Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad with Creamy Maple Dressing

This is the perfect autumn salad recipe!! The ingredients highlight the best of the best of the season…tart crisp apples, toasty nuts and seeds, tasty raw brussel sprouts, sweet dried cherries and topped with a creamy maple dressing.

Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad with Creamy Maple Dressing

Serves 8

1½ pounds large Brussels sprouts, very thinly sliced (see Note)

½ cup pepitas

1½ cups pecan halves, toasted

1 large honeycrisp apple, cored, sliced

1½ cups dried cherries

¾ cup creamy maple dressing *see below

In a large bowl, toss the shaved Brussels sprouts with the pepitas, pecans, apple slices, cherries, pomegranate seeds, and dressing until coated. 


Note: The best way to get super thin shredded Brussels sprouts is to use a mandoline or your food processor. If you don’t have one, just use a sharp knife and try to slice as thin as possible.

Maple Dressing

Serves 6

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup maple syrup

1 Tablespoon stone ground mustard

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

Whisk all ingredients together until smooth. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
