Ingredients

Dressing

  • 5 ounce apple spice Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Slaw

  • ¾ pound fresh Brussels sprouts
  • 2 large apples
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 4 scallions
  • ½ cup toasted pecans chopped
  • ½ cup pomegranate seeds
  • ¾ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup salted pumpkin seeds pepitos

Instructions

  • For the dressing, combine the apple spice yogurt, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper in a small bowl and whisk well to combine. Add more salt if necessary. Set aside.
  • For the slaw, cut the tough ends off of the Brussels sprouts and remove the outer leaves. Rinse well.
  • Shred the Brussels sprouts in a food processor fitted with the slicing blade, or with a sharp knife or mandoline slicer. Place the shredded Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl.
  • Peel the apples, and cut into quarters away from the core.
  • Shred the apples in a food processor fitted with the shredding blade, or with a julienne peeler or mandoline slicer fitted with the julienne blade. Place the apples in the bowl with the Brussels sprouts.
  • Toss the Brussels sprouts and apples together and cover with 1 cup water with the juice of 1 lemon added, to keep the apples from turning brown. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, slice the green parts of the scallions, and measure out all remaining ingredients.
  • Drain the lemon water from the apples and Brussels sprouts,
  • Add the scallions, pecans, pomegranate seeds, cranberries and pumpkin seeds to the Brussels sprouts and apples and toss well to combine.
  • Pour dressing over all, and let sit for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to combine.

Notes

If you prefer a creamier dressing, double the dressing recipe.
