Ingredients

2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon tahini
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
⅓ cup neutral oil, such as canola or avocado oil
5 cups brussels sprouts, thinly sliced
½ teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
½ teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground, plus more to taste
2 cups quinoa, cooked, warm
½ cup craisins
½ cup toasted pecans, roughly chopped
½ cup parmesan cheese, shaved, plus more for serving

Steps:

Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mustard, maple syrup, tahini, apple cider vinegar, and salt. Starting with a few drops and steadily increasing the stream, slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking continuously, until the dressing is thickened and emulsified.
Make the salad: Add the shaved Brussels sprouts to a large bowl and season with the salt and pepper. Add 3 tablespoons of the dressing to the Brussels and toss well to coat.
Add the warm quinoa, craisins, toasted pecans, shaved Parmesan, and 2 additional tablespoons of dressing to the brussels and toss well. Season to taste with salt and pepper
Top the salad with more shaved Parmesan and serve with the remaining dressing alongside.
Enjoy!

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts in this salad for sunflower seeds. It was just as delicious!

I'm not a big fan of Brussels sprouts, but I really enjoyed this salad. The quinoa and cranberries really balance out the flavor of the Brussels sprouts.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover Brussels sprouts. I always have a few leftover after making roasted Brussels sprouts, and this is a great way to use them up.

I found that the salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I added a bit of salt and pepper, and it was much better.
