Notes
- Shredding Brussel Sprouts fast: I find that the easiest (and quickest) way to shred Brussel sprouts is by doing it in the food processor. Watch the video to see how I do it.
- Storing leftovers: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. They should be fresh for up to 2 days.
- Make ahead instructions: If you want to make ahead, you can make the dressing and shred the Brussel sprouts a day in advance and assemble the salad (with the toppings) on the day you are planning to serve it.
