Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad with Grated Parmesan Cheese and Toasted Walnuts

Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad with Grated Parmesan Cheese & Toasted Walnuts is a delightful winter salad and a great way to serve this winter vegetable! I hadn't thought of using brussels sprouts raw in a salad but it's one of the easiest and tastiest ways to use them.

Brussels sprouts are an odd vegetable. Their growing time of four months is double that of large purple and white cabbages. Whereas other veggies in the cabbage family produce one single vegetable, the brussels sprouts plant produces many.

Easy and quick to make, this is a delightful salad alternative!

It's complicated to slice the brussels sprouts without a food processor, so use either a Cuisinart  or a mandolin.
