Ingredients

Brussels Sprouts Salad

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts shredded
  • 8 ounces green cabbage shredded
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup shelled pistachios roughly chopped

Slaw Dressing

  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander optional
  • juice of 1 lime
  • salt and pepper to season

Instructions

  • In a large bowl combine shredded Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cilantro, mint, and pistachios. 
  • In a small bowl whisk together apple cider vinegar, olive oil, sugar, coriander, and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. 
  • Toss Brussels sprout mixture with dressing until fully combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve. 
  • Give slaw a toss before serving

Notes

  • you can buy green cabbage already shredded fine in the produce section if you don't want to buy a full head.
  • try purple cabbage for a change of vibrant colors.
  • if you don't have apple cider vinegar, feel free to use balsamic vinegar. I like a white balsamic best!
  • add a tablespoon of honey mustard to the dressing for even more flavor.
  • toss in some dried cherries or cranberries for more tang.
  • the longer the salad and dressing sit together, the more intense the flavor gets. Let sit at least an hour for best results.
  • use a food processor or mandoline slicer for easier shredding of the sprouts and cabbage.
  • flavor intensifies with time. Make a day ahead for more robust flavor.
