INGREDIENT OPTIONS:
- Shaved brussel sprouts are the base of this salad. You can buy them already shaved in the grocery store. Or you can shave them with the grating tab of your food processor, a mandoline, or with a knife.
- This recipe calls for a granny smith apple, the tartness pairs well with this salad. Feel free to use whatever kind you have on hand.
- Dried cranberries can be swapped with dried cherries for a slightly sweeter version.
- Pecans or almonds can be used in place of the walnuts. Sunflower seeds are great as a nut free alternative.

Store salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This salad is best eaten right away. If preparing ahead of time, cut and add the apples and dressing just before serving.
