"Unusual Salad - Sounds horrid, tastes fab""
Serves 4 | Prep Time 30 minutes | Cook Time 0Why I Love This Recipe
This is a weird recipe that shouldn't work. However it does and is delicious. Probably best done when there is a glut of excess Brussels, like boxing day! Raw Brussels taste a bit like cabbage, so this would be a good swop.
Again, based on a slimming world recipe Free Foods A-Z, however with lots of changes.
Ingredients You'll Need
