This shaved Brussels sprout salad is simple, delicious, and perfect for the holidays! The recipe was created when Tina and I were trying to come up with a good way to make use of the Brussels sprouts that had been sitting around in her fridge forever, and we were both thrilled to see how well it turned out. Serve the salad while still slightly warm as a light lunch with Tina’s Hungry Bird Eats Nordic Crisps on the side, or top the salad with leftover turkey for a heartier meal.
Notes
Don’t have a mandoline slicer? Just slice the sprouts as thinly as you can with a sharp knife.
No air fryer? Roast the sprouts in the oven instead. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spread the shaved Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 12–15 minutes, tossing halfway through, until golden.
