Plan to let this salad sit for at least 5 minutes before you serve it to let the dressing soften the sprouts slightly.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- juice and zest from 1/2 large lemon (about 1/4 cup juice)
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard or tahini
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 small apple
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped roasted almonds
- Freshly cracked pepper and salt to taste
Instructions
- Place the Brussels sprouts, trimmed of any brown leaves as needed, into a food processor. Pulse to chop and shred.
- Mix the vinaigrette ingredients together in a jar: Add the lemon zest and juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard (or tahini), and honey to a jar. Put the lid on and shake vigorously to combine well.
- Add the Brussels sprouts to a large bowl with the chopped apple.
- Stir the dressing into the Brussels sprouts and apple. Let sit for at least 5 minutes and up to an hour. Top with feta and almonds, if using, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
