Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad
I love raw shaved Brussels sprout salads and have been making them since Madison was little. She loves them! Last year, I shared this Fall Brussels Salad with Apples, but lately, I am loving this pear version with pomegranate seeds. The perfect fall side dish to enjoy with your favorite protein. The colors are gorgeous, the pepitas give it the perfect crunch, and the goat cheese (or feta cheese) adds creaminess. For more of my favorite Brussels sprout recipes, try this Kale and Brussels Sprout Salad and Shredded Brussels Salad with Bacon.
