Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad
The first time my friends tasted my new side dish, they said it was phenomenal. The longer you let it chill in the fridge, the more tender the sprouts will be. —Nick Iverson, Denver, Colorado

This salad is delicious! It has a great crunch. It doesn't look like there will be enough dressing, but trust me, if you keep stirring and then let it rest for an hour in the fridge before serving, it is just right! I like that this salad maintains it's crunch and gets better with a bit of time, so it's a perfect candidate for a potluck.
I had never made a Brussel Sprout salad and found this one to be delicious. At first you don't think there will be enough dressing but if you leave it to marinate, there is enough. Just keep mixing. Rather than halfing and slicing, I did shred the sprouts and enjoyed as a slaw consistency. No flavor was compromised. Will definitely make again just as is!
Excellent. I made it as written the first time and found it needed more dressing, so I doubled it the next time and got great reviews. Some people didn't like the red onion, so I might use a milder sweet onion from now on. Note that if you have a kitchen aid with the slice/shred attachments, it makes quick work out of thinly slicing those brussels sprouts.
This has turned out to be one of my favorite salads! If I take it to a potluck, always gets cleaned out! Delicious!
Really tasty. Made about 1.5x the dressing, which is very good and works for many salad options besides this one. Keeps well at least 24 hours; not sure beyond because we finished it off quickly. Will definitley make again.
