How To Make It
Place grated Brussels sprouts, dried cranberries, toasted pecans, and sliced onion in a large salad bowl. Set aside the goat cheese for later.
In a mason jar, combine the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and maple syrup. Add salt and pepper to taste. Secure the lid and shake well until the dressing is fully emulsified.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is evenly coated. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Divide the salad into serving bowls and top each with crumbled goat cheese.
