Brussels Sprout Salad, inspired by Chelsea’s Kitchen

November 18, 2013

If you’ve been to Chelsea’s Kitchen in Scottsdale, AZ… one fabulous meal comes to mind: Brussels Sprout Salad. It is a unique, sweet and savory dish that will keep your head spinning for more. I think about this salad at least once a week. For my convenience, I’ve found a recipe online that I’ve recreated for my husband and I when we’d rather eat dinner at the comfort of our own home.
 
Enjoy!

For the salad
