Roasted Brussels Sprouts Salad
This crispy and crunchy brussels sprouts salad is so easy to make, yet packed with so much flavor. It’s a delicious side dish to pair with your weeknight dinners that tastes even better the next day.
The brussels sprouts get roasted in balsamic vinegar, dijon mustard, maple syrup and a few other simple seasonings. Once they’re ready, they get mixed in with thinly sliced red onion, apples and crunchy shaved almonds.
Everything gets tossed in a simple honey balsamic dressing to really bring the flavors together. The apples add a delicious sweetness, the onions add the perfect flavor kick, and the almonds add a nice crunch.
I love serving this warm out of the oven, or cold the next day.
How to make roasted brussels sprouts salad
Here’s what you’ll need for this simple recipe:
- brussels sprouts- I use whole brussels sprouts that I thinly slice myself. You can also buy pre-shaved brussels sprouts, but I prefer having some thicker pieces
- red onion
- honeycrisp apple- honeycrisp is my go-to for salads, but any other apple variety would work
- sliced almonds
- honey balsamic dressing: olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt & pepper
This recipe comes together so easily and is the perfect simple side dish to any meal. I served it last week with my Walnut & Pistachio Crusted Flounder and it was the ideal dinner combination.
This roasted brussels sprouts salad is a delicious combination of flavors. I can’t wait for you guys to try it!
