Shredded Brussels Sprout Salad with freshly grated Brussels sprouts, tender zucchini, crisp cucumber and sweet cranberries finished with a Caesar-Dijon dressing. One of my favorite winter salads!
I planned to share a pumpkin recipe today, but I ran into a slight delay with photo editing and pushed that post back a bit. In the meantime, try adding pumpkin to a dark chocolate chip banana bread — it’s a great trick — and then make this salad.

Crisp vegetables, creamy feta, and chewy dried cranberries come together with a bright Caesar-Dijon dressing for a salad that’s simple, satisfying, and perfect for winter. Serve it as a side or enjoy it as a light main — the recipe makes about two meal-sized portions or four side servings.
