Trim the stem on the Brussels sprouts and slice in half lengthwise. Using the slicing blade on a food processor, process the Brussels sprouts to shred them. You can also do this with the slicing side of a box grater or with a very sharp knife.

Add the shredded Brussels sprouts and toasted almonds to the dressing and mix well.
