The Salad:
- 4 cups shaved Brussels Sprouts

Instructions
For Dressing:
- In a small bowl add olive oil, lemon juice, and honey (optional). Whisk until emulsified. Add sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Set aside.
For Salad:
- Cut off the ends of Brussels sprouts and shave by running through a food processor using the slicing blade, or use a mandolin. If using a knife, cut off ends, then cut each sprout in half and then thinly slice. Place in a large bowl.

Notes
If you prefer your Brussels sprout a little softer, allow salad to sit for 15 minutes before serving.
