This flavorful and easy Brussels Sprouts salad recipe is ready in 15 minutes. It is sweet and salty, made with shaved Brussels sprouts, fresh apples, pistachios, and feta.

Change up your salad game by using shredded Brussels sprouts as the base instead of greens! This salad is tossed with a simple vinaigrette, apples, pistachios, and feta for a delicious and filling dish.
Brussels sprouts used to have a bad reputation as a sticky vegetable (which they can be when you steam them), but in recent years they’ve surged to greatness thanks to roasted Brussels appearing on menus across the country.
I love roasted Brussels sprouts, but did you know they also offer the perfect crunchy base for your salad? You can often find already-shredded Brussels in the produce department, but if not they’re easy to thinly slice or shred yourself.
This recipe pairs Brussels sprouts with crisp apples, crunchy pistachios and salty feta cheese, all tossed in a simple vinaigrette of olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.
