Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad with Toasted Pine Nuts

Ingredients
- 1 lb of brussels sprouts finely shredded
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp whole grain dijon mustard
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
Pepper to taste
Directions
- Cut the ends off the brussels and the first layer of exterior leaves. Using a mandolin on the finest setting, finely shred the brussels and add to a medium sized bowl. This part takes the most time (it's worth it). If you have a food processor use the shred blade attachment. For the bits that do not shred you can either discard or finely chop and add to shredded brussels.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together red wine vinegar, olive oil, dijon mustard sugar, salt and pepper.
- Pour dressing onto shredded brussels and using your hand or tongs, toss it together well. Let sit for 10 minutes
- In a small sauce pan on medium heat add pine nuts and toast them until they are golden brown. This should only take a few minutes. Make sure you toss then often to avoid burning. One golden, turn off burner.
- Once brussels and dressing have sat for 10 minutes, add in the parmesan cheese and toasted pine nuts. Mix together well.
- Serve in a bowl, add salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
