Shredded Brussels Sprout Salad with freshly grated Brussels sprouts, tender zucchini, crisp cucumber and sweet cranberries finished with a creamy Caesar-Dijon dressing. One of my favorite winter salads!
I planned to share a pumpkin recipe today, but photo editing slowed me down a bit, so that one will have to wait. In the meantime, a simple tweak—adding pumpkin to Dark Chocolate Chip Banana Bread—works wonders if you want a pumpkin fix now.
Until then, try this bright, crunchy salad!
Shredded Brussels Sprout Salad with Cranberries and Feta
Crisp vegetables, tangy feta and chewy dried cranberries come together with a zippy Caesar-Dijon dressing for a salad that’s fresh, satisfying and perfect for winter. It works equally well as a side dish or as a light main.
The recipe makes about 2 meal-sized portions or 4 side servings.
