This recipe is easiest to prep and assemble if you own a food processor.
Brussels Sprouts and Broccoli Slaw
Ingredients:
1 lb (500 g) broccoli = one large bunch
1 cup (250 mL) Brussels sprouts
1/2 medium red onion
1 large red pepper
1 large orange pepper
2 large carrots, scrubbed well, unpeeled
Dressing:
1/2 cup (125 mL) apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp (30 mL) extra virgin oil
1 tsp (5 mL) grainy Dijon mustard
1 tsp (5 mL) honey
Method:
1. To make your life easier you really need to make this with a food processor. If you don’t own one, either thinly slice or grate the veggies, ask for a food processor as a gift, or run out and buy one today. It’s one of my favourite toys in the kitchen.
2. Let’s assume you own a food processor – using the thinnest slicing attachment, slice the broccoli, Brussels sprouts, red onion and the peppers. Place the sliced veggies into a large bowl.
3. Change to the large grater attachment and grate carrots. Add to the other veggies.
4. Whisk together the dressing ingredients: apple cider vinegar, oil, Dijon, and honey pour over the veggies and toss well.
5. Store covered in the fridge for up to 4 days.
