Ingredients
1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed, tough or damaged outer leaves removed2 large or 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut in half crosswise1 large apple, such as Gala or Fuji, cored and diced1/3 cup pumpkin seeds, toasted2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice2 tablespoons Grade B maple syrup1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon1/4 teaspoon ground ginger3 TBS mayoSea salt, to taste (not included in nutrients)
Directions
Using a food processor fitted with the shredding disk, shred the Brussels sprouts and carrots. (You can also do this by hand with a box grater, but it will take a lot longer and a lot more elbow grease!) Transfer the shredded vegetables to a large bowl and toss with the apple and pumpkin seeds.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, maple syrup, olive oil, cinnamon, and ginger. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt. Allow to stand at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before serving (or in the refrigerator for up to 1 day).

    I like the idea for the combinations. I often look at a couple recipes and combine different aspects of each one. This is pretty and has the sweet flavor with apples that complements. I usually don't even add any dressing. Like the flavors of what is in this just fine on their own. - 3/2/17
