You can indulge a little by adding to your Roasted Brussels Sprouts Salad a shower of freshly grated parmesan, or crumble in some crispy bacon, toss in some slivered almonds, whatever to this sturdy foundation of shredded roasted greens. That might add a few more minutes to the time to create that salad, but this salad is also great without the additions. I’m currently reading Chrissy Tiegen’s cookbook Cravings and although her shredded brussels sprouts salad is raw and uses lemon juice instead of apple cider vinegar, I liked her idea of adding in 1 1/2 cups halved grapes and 1/2 cup toasted slivered almonds.

Roasting the shredded brussels sprouts is an extra step since you could just dress and eat them raw as is. But I like how roasting pays off as it gives the salad a little bit of crispiness that brings it up to a new level from a raw salad, without that much more effort. Having a warm salad is also comforting on spring days that drift more into chilly and rainy.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of Brussels Sprouts
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Freshly ground Pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Apple Cider vinegar

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a baking pan with spray or olive oil – you might choose to put some parchment paper or foil down first for easier cleanup.
  2. Next, after cleaning and tossing any browned leaves on the outside of your sprouts, I cut them in half and then shred them in the food processor for about 15 seconds or so in two batches. All together that took maybe 5 minutes.
  3. Now mix the shredded brussels sprouts with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the salt and pepper to taste together in a large mixing bowl.  Spread the sprouts on your lined baking pan and roast just until the edges start to get crisped and brown.  This might be about 7 – 10 minutes.
  4. While still hot, toss the 1 tablespoon of Apple Cider vinegar into the roasted and shredded sprouts.  Serve right away. Done, warm healthy salad for four people in 15 minutes!
    This recipe for Roasted brussels sprouts salad is just shredded sprouts with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a bit of apple cider vinegar roasted in the oven. These little browned pieces are just from roasting in the oven, not bacon - though I won't stop you from crumbling a little crispy bacon on your version

I served this as a side dish along with a Leek and Cheese Ranch Chicken Breast and Garlic Mashed Potatoes – I even ended up mixing the sauce from the chicken with the potatoes and the brussels sprouts and it was all good, a traditional home cooked meal with your plate of greens, carbs, and protein.

  1. This sounds delicious Pech – A simple side dish that will go well with so many things!

  2. Awe man, I’ve been craving a Brussels sprout salad all weekend, and now you go and post this 😉 I love Brussels sprouts no matter how they are served, but I’m really loving them in shaved salads lately. And this takes the dangerous mandolin right out of the picture. I’ve never thought to just put them in the food processor! So easy.

  3. I’ve never been a big fan of brussels sprouts – until I ate a friend’s roasted brussels sprout salad at Thanksgiving. Now I’m a convert! I’ll have to try this later. Mm!

    • I think roasted brussels sprouts are the gateway to brussels sprouts, vs the old fashioned steamed ones from the past that often didn’t have as much flavor. Roasting definitely fixes that

  4. I am buying brussels sprouts tomorrow and making this!! I almost bought some the other day and I love them but have gotten tired of making them the same few ways each time. Love how fast and easy this is!

  5. I just picked up some shaved brussel sprouts from Trader Joe’s yesterday (because occasionally I’m too lazy to peel them myself!!). I’m definitely going to give this recipe a try!!

  6. Quick, easy and sounds so delicious. I have been in love with brussels lately and have had some really tasty ones out at Crux and White Owl Social Club
