Christina's Notes
- Mandolin: A mandolin will easily slice Brussels sprouts into uniform pieces.
- Food Processor to Shave: A food processor will quickly shave your Brussels sprouts into the perfect pieces for your recipe.
- Lemon Juice: Squeeze a lemon or squirt lemon juice over this salad to add more tanginess.
