How do you toast the almond slices?

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the chopped almonds on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for about 5-10 minutes, shaking the pan once or twice, or until you start to smell them. Keep a close eye on them and take them out just when they are starting to turn golden and smell toasted.

Can you make shaved Brussels sprout salad in advance?

You bet! You can make both the salad and dressing and store it in the fridge until you want to eat it. Be warned: do not dress the salad until you're ready to eat it though. It won't hold well once you've added the dressing.

Notes/Tips

To Toast the Almonds: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the chopped almonds on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for about 5-10 minutes, shaking the pan once or twice, or until you start to smell them. Keep a close eye on them and take them out just when they are starting to turn golden and smell toasted.
I often make a full batch of this salad and munch on it all week long. Just don’t add the salad dressing until you are ready to eat!
I later use the Brussels in our Honey Balsamic Brussels Sprouts or Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies.
