Brussels sprouts in many ways are just tiny cabbages that can be shredded up and tossed with a simple dressing where they absorb the flavors to make a simple, elegant slaw. Adding slivers of crunchy nuts or even tangy cranberries or currants is a great idea. Use your preferred syrupy sweetener such as agave or maple syrup to make this vegan.

Ingredients

• 1 lb brussels sprouts, trimmed
• 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon honey, more or less to taste, or maple syrup/agave to make it vegan
