What’s Awesome About This Creamy Brussels Sprouts Salad

The combination of ingredients is just so good! We start making this salad by shredding fresh brussels sprouts, which makes a perfect light and crisp base for the salad. Then the seasoned chickpeas add a savory and satisfying component to the salad.

Other awesome ingredients include:

vegan feta

golden raisins

cucumber

fresh herbs

tomatoes

toasted walnuts

scallions

red onion

avocado

a delicious creamy vegan honey mustard dressing

Another reason why I love this salad is that it has amazing texture – there’s creamy elements as well as crisp. Plus, there’s pops of freshness and sweetness from the tomatoes and golden raisins. The scallions and green onions add a slight bit of zing as well.

Lastly, but perhaps most importantly for my preppers, this Creamy Brussels Sprouts Salad is great as leftovers. You can have it stored in the fridge for several days to grab as a perfect lunchtime go-to. Since the base is brussels sprouts, it doesn’t get wilted in the fridge easily like less hearty leafy greens do. You can either store the dressing separately in the fridge, or combine it into the salad.
