This slaw not only gets in unique flavor from the well-combined ingredients but also from the tangy, slightly sweet dressing. I mixed olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, salt, and pepper together then poured it over the slaw. Once all of the ingredients have some time to marinate, the flavor comes together making this slaw phenomenal!
Can I Make This Recipe Ahead Of Time?
Yes, please do! It’s actually better made ahead of time. All of the ingredients get to hang out and blend allowing the flavors really shine through.
How To Shred Brussels Sprouts
This is my favorite way to prep the brussels sprouts. Start by trimming the bottom of the sprout and removing any bruised leaved. Then using the shredding blade, process the brussel sprouts through the tube.
Slicing the sprouts really thin using a sharp knife works well. Make sure you start by prepping the brussels sprouts by trimming the bottom off and discarding any bruised leaves.
Recently I found a bag of shaved brussels sprouts in the grocery store. Who knew! I was thrilled to find them in the produce section. Since they are pre-packaged, make sure you “pick through” the bag and throw any hard stems before using.
