If you’ve hung around these parts (errr, um, my blog) for very long, then you know that I’ve just never been much of a salad girl. I mean, not a regular ‘ol salad girl. I can’t handle a boring salad. If I’m going to eat a bunch of raw veggies, then they better be combined with delicious ingredients that take them to the next level!
FRIENDS: This Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad w/ Cranberries is going above and beyond my requirements!
Now, I will say that there are a handful of salads that I’m pretty obsessed with here on the blog:
- Chili Mango Zesty Quinoa Salad
- Roasted Beets & Sweet Potato Salad
- Poached Egg & Avocado Breakfast Salad
- Chili Lime Ground Turkey Taco Salad
Those are all pretty delicious, and I’m super excited to add this Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad w/ Cranberries to the list!
How to shave the brussels sprouts for this salad:
There are many ways to go about shaving the brussels sprouts. I, being the stubborn person I am, insisted on chopping them all up with a knife cause I have this weird thing about washing extra dishes LOL. Idk. That said, it really wasn’t too bad!
However, I recommend using something like this multi-functional vegetable slicer because it can spiralize, slice, grate, peel, and do like a million other things!

I made this last night and it was delicious! It’s very similar to one of my favorite takeout salads from a local restaurant, but they substitute the cranberries with halved red grapes, and add shaved parmesan.

Shaved brussels salads are one of my go to bowls. I love the cranberries in here. Do you use any dressing at all?
