Shredded Brussels Sprouts Salad



I have tried and tried again to love Brussels sprouts, but until I came across this recipe, I just couldn't commit. The sweet dressing with a bite of lemon is a simple, yet fantastic combination with the touch of the raisins, creaminess of the avocado and crunch of the cucumber and flax seeds.

Ingredients
Salad:
1 cup Brussels sprouts, finely julienned
2 Tablespoons raisins
2 Tablespoons sunflower seeds
1/2 avocado, sliced
1/4 cup English cucumber, chopped
Flax seeds to garnish

Dressing:
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
1/2 Tablespoon olive oil
1/2 Tablespoon agave nectar

Preparation:
Whisk together the dressing ingredients and drizzle over the salad ingredients. Serve chilled.

Serves: 1
