The perfect holiday salad has to be packed with flavor, but it also has to be easy to make in advance. This shaved Brussels sprout salad is super fresh and has a great balance of tart, sweet, and salty with pomegranate, apple, dried cranberries, spiced candied pecans, shaved parmesan, and a creamy lemon vinegrett. You can make it a day in advance. Recipe and caption below.

Yuck Brussels sprouts 😮

I've Never heard of the perfect Holiday Salad!😮
Oh yum ❤
I don't know if it's the perfect salad, after all, everyone's going to be farting after they eat it.
Love Brussels ❤
Of course it had candy in it.
Sounds great and healthy! Thanks
That sounds scrumptious ❤❤
I have never heard of shaved brussel sprouts, sounds interesting. I think Cabbage would probably be a more economical choice but this sounds good too. Cheers.
This looks great but the posted recipe doesn’t include pecans and seems to have a different dressing. Can you help me recreate the one in this short? Ty.
Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad
Serves 4–6 | Prep: 15 min
Ingredients
• 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and shaved thin (use a mandoline, food processor with slicing blade, or sharp knife)
• 1 crisp apple (Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, or Fuji), julienned or diced
• ½ cup dried cranberries (or cherries)
• ½ cup toasted pecans, almonds, or walnuts, chopped
• ⅓ cup shaved Parmesan (or feta, goat cheese)
• ¼ small red onion, very thinly sliced (optional, soak in ice water 10 min to mellow)
Dressing
• 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice)
• 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
• 1 small garlic clove, minced (optional)
• Salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Shave the sprouts: Discard tough ends. Slice thinly from top to stem. Fluff to separate layers.
2. Toast nuts: 350°F oven for 6–8 min or stovetop in a dry pan until fragrant.
3. Make dressing: Whisk all ingredients until emulsified. Taste and adjust.
4. Assemble: In a large bowl, toss shaved sprouts, apple, cranberries, nuts, cheese, and onion (if using).
5. Dress: Add dressing gradually—start with ¾ and toss. Add more if needed. Tip: Dress 10–15 min before serving to soften sprouts slightly.
6. Finish: Top with extra cheese/nuts. Serve chilled or room temp.
Variations
• Kale & Brussels: Mix 50/50 with massage-torn kale.
• Bacon & Blue: Add crispy bacon + crumbled blue cheese.
• Citrus: Swap apple for segmented orange + pomegranate seeds.
• Vegan: Skip cheese, add nutritional yeast or avocado.
Make-ahead: Shave sprouts + store airtight up to 1 day. Dress just before serving to keep crunch.
Enjoy! 🥗
Thanks for not starting your video with, "Did you know that if you mix…."!
I can’t open the recipe. Can someone list it?
How do you handle the pomegranate seeds? That would not work for most people.
Edit: I see you handled it by not actually having it in the recipe, just in the video. Sneaky. 😂😂
