I’ve always been afraid to cook with brussels sprouts until I realized I didn’t have to cook them! Throwing them into a salad is a great way to change up your regular salad and add a little bit of crunch. They don’t get soggy or lose their crunch from the salad dressing, making them the perfect addition!
