FAQs:
Can I prepare this ahead of time?
Yes! I recommend making this a few hours before you plan to serve it if fixing it as a side dish. It soaks into the dressing and adds a lot of flavor!
Can I use shredded brussels sprouts in the bag?
You can to save time! I do prefer shredding them myself to remove the big pieces of brussels sprouts.
How long will this last for?
This will last good in the fridge for up to 2-3 days! I do recommend serving it fresh after the dressing soaks in though!

Notes
If serving this, I would leave off the pomegranate seeds until last and let the dressing soak into the brussels and mixture for an hour + until you serve it. Then add the pomegranate seeds in. That way the color doesn't soak into the rest of the salad!
until next time...
I want to make the Brussel Sprouts salad, however there are no measurements for the dressing ingredients.
