This Shredded Brussel Sprout Salad is perfect for all the cozy meals, y’all are whippin’ up this season!
Fall dins are my fave dins. There is just something so comforting about soups, casseroles, and all things baked. BUT, sometimes I get a little salad craving. The perfect solution is this Shredded Brussel Sprout Salad. Between the shredded sprouts, the crispy apple, the toasted pecans, and the chewy dried cherries- it is a texture bomb! And I’m here for it!
My favorite thing about this Shredded Brussel Sprout Salad is that it is sooo easy!
The only cooking involved is toasting your pecans. So if you have never toasted nuts before, get ready for some game changing skillz to add to your tool belt. I love using my cast iron skillet! Your goal is to not allow your pecans to burn. How that’s achieved, you ask? By stirring them constantly on a low heat until you smell a nutty, popcorny aroma. I love to use some sort of wooden spoon, I guess on this particular day all I had was a wooden fork- but it still came out beautifully!
Everything else in this shredded brussel sprout salad is basically chop and toss in a glorious apple cider vinaigrette that screams fall! Anywho, this salad is so versatile- have it for a weeknight meal, I roasted some chicken breast to have along with it! Or bookmark this baby for Thanksgiving, It’s the perfect addition to the sides you have already been planning! Welp, time to chop this bad boy up!!
