We recently added this salad back to our Spring Cleanse menu because it was such a hit! I love the way this vinaigrette tastes, especially in the warmer summer months. The Brussels sprouts are refreshing, and of course, packed with nutrients. Cranberries add a nutritious sweet punch, and I love how much fiber is in the cannellini beans! Enjoy!

1 cup brussel sprouts, shaved
1/2 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
1/4 cup scallions, thinly sliced

1/4 cup walnuts
2 T dried cranberries
Directions
- Assemble the salad, putting the lettuce, beans, and Brussels sprouts down first.
Dijon Vinaigrette
Ingredients
2 T sherry vinegar
½ T minced shallots
½ T Dijon mustard
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Directions
- In a small bowl, whisk the sherry vinegar with the shallot and Dijon mustard.
