By tulawdog

Ingredients

• 2 pounds raw Brussels sprouts
• 1 cup walnut pieces
• 1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
• 9 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 3 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon whole grain mustard
• salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Begin by heating a skillet over medium heat and lightly toasting the walnuts until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

To prepare the Brussels sprouts, remove the outer leaves and stalk until no dirt or other bits of nature remain and set aside in a bowl of water. Using a knife, food processor, or mandolin, shave the Brussels sprouts one by one. Set aside.

In a small jar with a lid, add the extra virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, and salt and pepper. Replace the lid and shake well to combine.

In a bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts, walnuts, Parmesan, and dressing. Toss to combine.
