Today is about all the cold weather eats we love. They've come together (at last!) in one delicious bowl that we're calling a Late Autumn Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad. Late autumn as in right now and for the rest of this chilly season.

We've got a whole pile of brussels that have been roasted to deliciousness because roasting brussels is the only way to go. In this salad, we're using shaved brussels, which are all kinds of awesome. Once they're roasted, they packed full of delicious flavor and have lots of little crispy bits on them. Serious goodness here.

Shaved Brussels Sprouts Salad Ingredients

In the name of eating all the good things, I've piled this shaved brussels sprout salad full of winter favs. We've got:

• Sweet potatoes. Roasted to bite-sized perfection. Sweet. Delicious. Happy.
• Walnuts. Popped into the oven until toasted and full of flavor.
• Pomegranate. Sweet jeweled candies. Pretty pretty pretty and oh so tasty. (I have to hide these from my daughter or she'll literally eat an entire pomegranate, one tiny seed at a time.)
• Mandarin oranges. We've already been over their sweet deliciousness. They have all the love all season long.

Mandarin Orange Lemon Vinaigrette

Have you ever used mandarin oranges to make salad dressing? Ya, me neither until now. Since this salad is all things autumn and winter and mandarin oranges fall firmly into that category, I knew they were the ones.

I often like to add some maple syrup or honey to salad dressings that are destined for cold weather salads. (I'm looking at you, kale salad!) Heartier greens (as well as Brussels) can be a touch bitter. Adding sweetness to the dressing balances this out.

Mandarin oranges are super sweet. Like I need to tell you that. That's why we eat them by the fist full while they're in season.

But since they have so much natural sweetness, there's no need to add any extra to the dressing.
