Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 100 grams Red cabbage
- 1 medium Carrot
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 150 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 30 grams Fresh parsley
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Sunflower seeds
Instructions
Start by preparing the Brussels sprouts: wash and trim the ends, then shred them finely using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer.
Thinly slice the red cabbage and set it aside.
Peel the carrot and grate it using a box grater or cut it into thin matchsticks.
Remove the seeds and core from the red bell pepper, then slice it into thin strips.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and roughly chop the fresh parsley.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts, red cabbage, carrot, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, and parsley.
To prepare the dressing, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to ensure everything is fully coated in the dressing.
Sprinkle the sunflower seeds over the salad for added crunch and flavor.
Serve immediately as a fresh, dairy-free side salad or refrigerate for up to a couple of hours to allow flavors to meld. Stir before serving if refrigerated.
