Shaved Brussels Sprouts and Apple Salad with Maple-Lemon Vinaigrette
Ali Segersten (author) Sep 19, 2025
Crisp shaved Brussels sprouts, tart apples, and toasted pecans come together in this refreshing fall salad. Brussels sprouts, a member of the cruciferous vegetable family, are rich in compounds that help upregulate the body’s detoxification pathways. Tossed with a bright maple-lemon vinaigrette, it’s the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and crunchy. Add dried currants or raisins for a touch of natural sweetness if desired. Serve alongside roasted chicken, steak, or salmon for a complete meal.
