Chop up this raw Brussels Sprouts salad and pair it with your steak, salmon, or have it for your main dish!
Trim the Brussels sprouts, then cut them in half. Chop them into small bites, I like to "shred" the sprouts by chopping the halves as if I am slicing an onion. Place the chopped Brussels sprouts into a medium sized bowl.
Next, chop the cabbage into your desired size. I like to dice my cabbage into small bite-sized pieces. Toss the cabbage on top of the Brussels sprouts.
Grab your green apple and matchstick the fruit into thin bite-sized pieces. You can also just chop the apple into small bite sized pieces if you want. Your salad, you choose. Add the apple into the salad bowl.
Up next is a little red onion. Chop your red onion into small slices by cutting the onion in half and then slicing the half into thin slices. Use as much or as little as you would like. I recommend about 1/4 cup but you can always add more if you want. Toss the sliced onion into the salad bowl.
Add 1/4 cup of craisins to the salad bowl and toss to mix all of the ingredients together.
In a mason jar add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, microplaned garlic, salt, and pepper. Screw the lid on the mason jar and shake to mix the dressing together.
If you do not have a mason jar you can also mix these ingredients together in a bowl with a fork or whisk.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat.
Notes:
Salad will last up to 2 days with dressing on in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
