Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and shaved
  • 1/3 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 3 tbsp dried cranberries
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Shave the trimmed Brussels sprouts as thinly as possible using a mandoline or sharp knife.
  2. Toast the sliced almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, shaking often, until golden and fragrant. Transfer to a plate immediately.
  3. Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Toss the shaved sprouts with most of the dressing, then add the cranberries, half the almonds, and most of the Parmesan. Toss again, pile onto a platter, and top with the remaining almonds and Parmesan.

Notes

Let the dressed salad sit for 5 minutes so the sprouts soften slightly and the flavors meld. If you plan to keep leftovers, set aside a portion before adding the almonds and Parmesan so they stay crunchy for later.
