Servings: 4
Equipment
- sharp knifes
- baking sheet
Ingredients
- 1 lb brussel sprouts
- 1 tsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 apple, chopped Fuji or Gala
- ¼ cup dried cranberries
- ¼ cup shaved almonds
- ¼ cup red onion, chopped
- ⅓ cup manchego, shredded *see notes
Dijon Honey Dressing
- 3-4 Tbsp dijon *taste as you go!
- 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 Tbsp honey or maple syrup *use more as needed
- 1 Tbsp water
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375º. If you're starting with whole Brussels sprouts, trim the stems and remove any tough outer leaves. Using a sharp knife slice them thinly. If you prefer a shortcut, opt for pre-shaved Brussels sprouts available at some grocery stores.
- On a cooking sheet, combine the shaved Brussels sprouts 1 tsp oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well and roast in the oven for 12-14 minutes, tossing often to ensure an even cook. Meanwhile, add chopped apple, cranberries, almonds, red onion and cheese to a large salad bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, honey, water, salt, and pepper. This dressing ties all the components together with a harmonious balance of tang and sweetness. Taste the dressing as you go, you may want more honey or syrup to sweeten it up. Once the Brussels sprouts are tender, add them to the large bowl, pour the dressing over everything and enjoy.
Notes
*whole brussel sprouts or pre shaved brussels will work. Please cook the pre shaved Brussels for 5 minutes less time to prevent burning,
*Parmesan or vegan shreds will also work
Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just remix before serving. Enjoy cold or reheated in the microwaves.
