Brussels Sprouts Salad ~


Howdy babies! 
Are you all having a great weekend??
It goes by way too fast for me. 
Today, I'm relaxing on the couch listening to Led Zeppelin. 
My idea of heaven. 

I posted a quick Instagram pic of my lunch {this salad} on FB a couple weeks ago, and y'all went a little Bonzo wanting the recipe. I promised I would post it. 

Well, I forgot.  And Paula kindly reminded me that she REALLY wanted the recipe. 
Well Paula, my love... here you go!! 


Brussels Sprouts Salad:

  • 1 1/2 to 2 lbs Brussels Sprouts shaved 
  • Small container feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup candied walnuts
  • 4-5 pieces crisp bacon crumbled
  • Poppyseed dressing to taste
I use store bought dressing, but you could certainly make your own.  You can shred the Brussels Sprouts on a mandolin or shred them by hand with a knife, like I do.  It's time consuming and you will wonder why you don't have a mandolin, but when you taste this salad you will forget all about how long it took to cut up the Sprouts.

It's delicious.  I love Brussels Sprouts any day of the week, made any way.  Doesn't matter, I love them.  I love salad and could eat it for every meal of every single day.  So this is the best of both worlds.


I love to take this to work for lunch. It's healthy and very filling. 


Eat your veggies people!  :-) 


Even Max loves this salad... and he thinks people food is disgusting!!


I hope you try it and enjoy it as much as we do!! 

XOXO
