Notes

To shred the brussels sprouts, you can use a sharp knife to thinly slice them. Or use a mandolin or a food processor fitted with the slicing disc.

Instead of brussels sprouts, you can substitute with shredded cabbage.

For the cranberries, you can substitute with pomegranate seeds.

You can swap the almonds with chopped walnuts or pecans.

The salad is best the day you make it, but you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 days. Keep the vinaigrette in a separate jar. You can make the vinaigrette up to 2 days in advance. Let it sit out at room temperature to become liquid again, and then stir it.
