Shaved Brussels Sprouts + Apple Salad | Shopbop New Arrivals on Sale


The older I have gotten the more I have come to love Brussel Sprouts in any shape or form.  This salad was a recent creation and so good.  If you are still looking for Easter meal ideas this would be a great side dish to serve.  If you make this ahead of time I would wait to add the nuts in right before serving. 
Enjoy!

adapted via Food and Wine

- 1 bag brussels sprouts thinly sliced
- 1 fuji or honey crisp apple julienned
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 1/4 cup fresh Parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoons diced shallot
- 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice- juice of one lemon
- chopped chives

Finely chop the walnuts.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Lay the chopped walnuts on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt.  Bake about 5-7 mins- you don't want them to burn so keep an eye on them.  Pull out and let cool slightly.

Combine the brussels sprouts, apples, and parmesan cheese in a large bowl. 
Whisk together olive oil, shallot, dijon, sugar, and lemon juice.  Pour dressing over salad and toss all together.  Add chopped walnuts and chives last.

I have these in the yellow but may have to get another color I love them so much.  They are super light weight and a fun addition to any outfit.
I love the colors of this maxi dress and the side tie detail.

This is adorable.  The pink tassel sleeves and embroidery make it even cuter.

We have a white party coming up and I am ordering this dress to try out!

One of my favorite style suits, so flattering.  I love this pink color.  Such a great time to buy when you can save a little $$.

I recently got these in black and love them. Super comfortable and they go with everything.  Do size up at least 1/2 a size as they run small.

The perfect white blouse and under $70.

I recently wore this and received so many compliments.  I love that it is cotton and can be washed.

This is gorgeous for a wedding or any event.
This is so cute.  I would pair it with white jeans or jean shorts.
I am obsessed with these stripes and colors.

This style Equipment dress is my favorite.  I own it in a few different patterns,  I can't tell you how versatile it is.


I always love Holst and Lee designs.  They are so fun.  This would be great with a maxi or white tee.

Hands down my favorite sandals I have bought this season.  I wear them almost everyday.
This also comes in navy.
Reminds me of the Ulla version but a fraction of the price.

This is a great time to buy jeans, a few of my everyday favorites.   I like all 3 of these because they are high waisted and flattering.
