Equipment

1 cutting board
1 Bowl
1 mandoline food processor or cheese grater
1 knife

Ingredients

2 c brussel sprouts stems removed, shredded or thinly sliced
2 c broccoli slaw optional, or add 1 more cup of each above
1.5 c dried cranberries
1 c bacon precooked and diced
1/2 c pepitas
1/2 c pecans halved

Homemade Vinaigrette

1/2 c olive oil
3 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Trim the Ends using a sharp knife. Remove any outer leaves that are damaged or discolored and discard those. Slice them in half by placing the trimmed flat-side down on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice it in half vertically, from top to bottom.
Remove the core, then use the tip of your knife to carefully cut it out after halving eachone. This step is optional, but it can help improve the texture of the salad.
Thinly Slice with a mandoline or if you prefer a finer texture in your salad, you can thinly slice crosswise into thin ribbons or put halved pieces into a food processor pulsing just a few times to cut very fine.
Rinse and Dry after cutting under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry with paper towels or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture before adding them to your salad.
Toss additional ingredients of your choice in with the salad together. In a small bowl whisk together dressing ingredients and pour on top. Toss together and serve.
