For the Dressing
  • 1/4 cup Mustard (Dijon) Yellow mustard can be substituted.
  • 1/4 cup Onion (minced) Red onion can be used for a milder taste.

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the walnuts evenly on a baking sheet and roast them for about 10 minutes until fragrant and slightly golden.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, neutral oil, vinegar, and sugar until well emulsified. Fold in the minced onion and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Rinse the fresh brussel sprouts and trim hard stems. Shred the brussel sprouts finely using a food processor or mandolin. Combine with coleslaw mix and thinly sliced apple.
  4. Allow the slaw to marinate for 15-20 minutes to meld flavors and soften the vegetables.
  5. Transfer the slaw to a serving dish, topping with chopped walnuts and grated parmesan or nutritional yeast if desired. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
