So long summer salads, hello fall veggies!  Serve this Shredded Brussels Sprout and Apple Salad at any of your fall feasts for a healthy swap!  

We tend to serve mostly roasted veggies with fall and winter meals due to the cooler weather.  They are warming, grounding and comforting.  In fact, some cooked vegetables provide more nutrients than raw vegetables.  However, sometimes meals become too heavy (especially at Thanksgiving!) and need to be balanced with lighter, refreshing foods served in their raw state.  This brussels sprout salad is dressed with just a little olive oil and fresh lemon juice making it very detoxifying as well.  Sliced apples are added for sweetness and pine nuts give it a little crunch.  It’s my new go-to salad!

The lemon juice keeps the apples from turning brown, so don’t be afraid to make this salad way before you need to serve it!  It actually tastes better the next day when all the flavors have blended together.
