Who said salads have to be plain and boring? 
I love using thinly sliced Brussels sprouts and flavorful toppings to make this Shredded Brussels Sprouts Salad then adding homemade Maple Vinaigrette to jazz it up!

Ingredients:

Makes 2 large entree salads
  • 16oz bag of Brussels Sprouts
  • 2 eggs, cooked over easy {or desired doneness}
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, chopped
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 small pear or apple, sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans or almonds, toasted 
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 3oz container goat cheese crumbles
  • 1/4 cup croutons
  • salt/black pepper, to taste
For the Maple Vinaigrette:
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • salt/black pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1. Wash and dry the Brussels Sprouts then trim off the rough ends.
  2. Thinly slice the sprouts, shredding them, and add to a large bowl.
  3. Now add remaining topping ingredients except the eggs and seasoning.
  4. For the Maple Vinaigrette whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl. 
  5. Pour desired amount on top of the salad and toss all ingredients together and mix well.
  6. Portion onto two plates and add an egg on top of each.
  7. Season with salt and cracked pepper and serve.
 I love buying these 1lb bags of already trimmed Brussels Sprouts. 
What a time saver!
 Wash and dry the Brussels Sprouts then trim off the rough ends if needed.
Thinly slice the sprouts, shredding them, and add to a large bowl.
 I love adding nuts to my salads! 
Pecans are my favorite but almonds and walnuts are tasty too.
Add the nuts to a dry skillet and toast for a few minutes over medium heat.
Be sure to stir so they do not burn!
Cook two large eggs to your desired doneness.
 I like over easy or over medium. 
 For the Maple Vinaigrette whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl. 
 Season to taste with salt and cracked black pepper. 
 I pour into a mason jar and serve.
 Pour desired amount on top of the salad.
Now add remaining topping ingredients except the eggs and seasoning.
Toss all ingredients together and mix well.
 
Portion onto two plates and add an egg on top of each.
Season with salt and pepper.
 Serve and enjoy this delicious meal!

❤️This week marks 2 years since our beloved cocker spaniel Dylan passed away. I created this free printable Rainbow Bridge poem on the blog in honor of Dylan. It can be customized with your pet's photo and would be a  cherished framed gift for someone who has lost a special pet. #rainbowbridge #doglove #dogheaven #rip #mydog  #neverforgotten #rainbowbridge🌈

We spent Earth Day 2022 in Springfield at the picnic and a movie event in the gardens. It was the perfect sunny afternoon with a breeze and we shared a delicious charcuterie picnic and watched "Bee Movie". The girls did crafts, played in the park, listened to speakers and poetry, and @theparkboard gave us a tree to take home. We had a great time and everyone slept the whole drive home (except Mom)! #earthday2022 #springfieldmo #missourilife #movienight #earthday #picnic #familyfun
