Is it BRUSSEL SPROUTS OR BRUSSELS SPROUT or BRUSSELS SPROUTS?

Until a few years back, I always wondered what it is the right spelling. These tiny cabbage are named after the city of Belgium called Brussels, so the correct spelling is BRUSSELS SPROUT. 

However English is a funny language and we tend to translate the common mispronunciations and carry on with it. Just like Brussel Sprout is a common error in English Language!

TRENDING RECIPE

 

EASY SHREDDED BRUSSELS SPROUT SALAD

Not just for the festive occasions like Thanksgiving and Christmas, these mini cabbages are a delicious accompaniment to your meaty main dishes. They also make a delicious Salad lunch on the go. 

Our No Cook Salad recipe comes together in just about 5 minutes.  What takes a little longer is the preparation involved like shaving or shredding the brussels sprouts, lemon vinaigrette etc.

For a change, its great to add some deliciousness to the Christmas meal with these shredded sprouts, juicy pomegranate seeds, onion, pecans and drizzled with lemon vinaigrette.

WHY I LOVE THIS BRUSSELS SPROUT SALAD

Come festive season every year, we tend to make many variations of this Easy Brussels Sprout Salad. 

Quick & Easy  – Simply shred or shave the sprouts. Toss them with onions, pomegranate seeds, pecan, salty cheese, salt & pepper and vinaigrette.

Make Ahead  – Perfect Holiday Salad that can be prepped and made in advance. This salad holds the dressing well, without getting soggy. So it’s perfect to make it ahead of the party.

Can be Vegan –  If you decide to use a Vegan Cheese or leave out the cheese in the recipe – this hearty vegan brussels sprout salad is suitable for VEGANS/ VEGETARIANS.

Easy Lunch – Perfect for Mason Jar Salad for work! I love mason jar recipes just like this Mexican Mason Jar Salad.

    Never considered sprouts for a salad (although I do like sprouts!) I would certainly like to be more adventurous with salads, and I am looking forward to the warmer days where I can experiment a bit with more choice of ingredients.

    That looks so good! I am a massive salad fan, loving the sprouts idea 🙂 I’d make a salad based around onion and mushroom (I know – I’m odd!). Can’t wait to try this brussels sprout salad with vinaigrette!
