Directions

Directions

  1. In a large pot, bring 6 cups of water to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts and blanch in the boiling water for 1 minute. Remove from boiling water and run under cold water to stop the cooking. Dry the sprouts with a clean towel.

  2. 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.

  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together scallions, vinegar, mustard, soy sauce, Splenda, mayonnaise and black pepper.

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