Peanutty Brussel Slaw

Add to Recipe Box

Wait, stop, come back. Don’t stop reading because this recipe has Brussel Sprouts. Really, they are just like mini cabbages. Everyone likes mini things. Like those mini corn on the cob, or mini patty pan squash, or baby carrots. Besides, this peanutty dressing is so good that, as my sister would say, she would eat…..maybe I better not repeat what my sister would say. Anyway, you have got to try this and see for yourself how good this slaw really is.
