Author Notes: I actually came up with this recipe while preparing another recipe I submitted 'Tangy Brussels Sprout Chips.' While sampling the raw sprout leaves that had been tossed in oil and lemon juice, I thought "These would be amazing uncooked, tossed with fruit & nuts! Thus, Fresh & Fruity Brussels Sprout Salad was born! - Loves Food Loves to Eat

Serves 2-4

  • 1 1/2 pound brussels sprouts
  • 1 Granny Smith Apple- diced
  • 1 carrot- peeled and grated
  • 1 cup toasted pecans
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries (craisins)
  • 2 tablespoons shaved parmesan
  • course ground salt and pepper
  1. Cut off Brussels stems, halve sprouts, and separate each layer. (For middles that wont' separate: set asidefor separate use, or dice fineor shred and add to salad)
  2. Toss sprout leaves, thinly diced apple, grated carrot, chopped toasted pecans, cranberries, and parmesan together in a bowl.
  3. Mix together salt, pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice
  4. Add dressing mixture to salad and toss to coat.
  5. Enjoy!

Thanks so much for posting this with Amanda's salad today. I love apples and pecans together--I bet this is wonderful. I'm saving the recipe to make soon.
