Make this crisp Brussels Sprouts Salad with bright citrus segments and a tangy vinaigrette for a wonderful winter lunch. You will love the fresh flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, thinly shaved
  • 2 navel oranges, segmented
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup toasted pecans, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Brussels sprouts by removing any tough outer leaves. Shave them very thinly using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Place the shaved sprouts in a large bowl.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until the vinaigrette emulsifies.
  3. Pour the vinaigrette over the shaved Brussels sprouts. Toss well to coat every leaf evenly. Let the salad sit for 5 minutes to slightly soften the sprouts.
  4. Gently fold in the orange segments and chopped pecans, if using.
  5. Serve immediately for a tangy and bright salad. Enjoy your lunch!

Notes

  • For the best texture, shave the Brussels sprouts just before assembling the salad.
  • You can substitute grapefruit or mandarins for the navel oranges.
  • If you do not have fresh lemon juice, use lime juice for a different but still bright flavor.
