This no-cook Shaved Brussels Sprouts salad is easy to put together and is a great way to use Brussels Sprouts when they are in season. You can prep this salad in advance, even with the dressing added... infact, I would recommend that because it allows the Brussels sprouts to soak up the flavors. Don't worry the salad won't get soggy as the hearty brussels sprouts hold up well, making it a perfect salad/appetizer to make or take to a party. It's got a nice, refreshing tart - sweet dressing and the salty parmesan cheese just takes it to the next level. Hope you give it a try!

Notes

Substitutions - 1. Swap apple with other fruit such as clementines or pomegranate. 2. Swap pecans with other toasted nuts such as walnuts, almonds or pine nuts. 3. Swap Parmesan cheese with grated pecorino cheese. For Whole30, skip the cheese in the salad and maple syrup in the dressing.
