Brussels Sprouts Salad

Posted for Zaar World Tour 2005. From a cookbook of countries along the Danube, this came from Germany. The original recipe called for a tablespoon of salt but I cut it down to a teaspoon (particularly since the sprouts are cooked in broth). Cooking time includes chilling time. I have not tried this recipe yet. Update - tried for Christmas as per Elmotoo's comment. Very pretty with tomatoes, and I thought there was too much vinegar in the dressing so I suggest reducing to 1/4 cup as per current ingredients list.

I had hoped the add ons would make brussel sprouts palatable to the kids. This did not occur and, with my kids, was probably too high of an obstacle to clear. Accordingly, the kids gave it an average 1.67 stars. For my tastes, I though it was a good twist on brussel sprouts, although perhaps included too much salt.

Made & reviewed for ZWT 4 ~ Kumquat's Kookin Kaboodles! I happen to LOVE sprouts & was excited to try this as I've never even heard sprouts & salad in the same sentence before! I made this as written except I used apple vinegar.... the resulting salad was very tasty & even my 6 year old son ate it without complaining ; )

Ooh, this made a nice supper warm along with a potato salad. I used red wine vinegar and halved the recipe. Thanks!

This salad was great. I love finding new ways to make veggies. We ate this chilled and everyone enjoyed it. Thanks! Made this for ZWT4 for the Chic Chefs.
