Salad Days: Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad with Lemon

1 min read

Brussels Sprouts Salad_Macro

Like most of the meals I make at home, this salad is simple to make. Seriously, preparation could not be any easier. I will mention, however, that the most important thing you need for this salad is not an ingredient but a tool–a mandoline to be specific. While you have to be careful to keep your fingers out of the way, the mandoline will thinly slice the Brussels sprouts in a way that most of us who don’t possess the knife skills of a Japanese sushi chef would never be able to achieve on our own.

This salad is perfect as a side and requires–wait for it–absolutely no cooking. Look, I love to cook but there are some days when my stove and I are not on speaking terms and great meals don’t always require cooking. Am I right?!  I found this lemony Brussels sprouts salad on Food52–my favorite drool-worthy food site–and modified it a bit.

I’ve always been drawn to obscure things; I’ve never been attracted to the normal or what the cool kids were doing. In particular, I enjoy the unusual and the macabre—blame it on an enduring love of the works of Edgar Allan Poe—and I always seem to seek out bizarre and…

10 Things to Do in Havana, Cuba

For most Americans born after the 1958 embargo, Cuba has remained an island of mystery even though it’s only 105 miles off the shore of Key West, Florida. We know very little of Cuba–perhaps only the 3 c’s–Communism, cars, and cigars, but the destination is so much more than that. The island is…
