I have a new favorite salad for us to obsess over.

And this one is extra yummy if I do say so myself. As someone who doesn’t even love and crave veggies, I absolutely love this salad with the broccolini, Brussels sprouts slaw and kale base. It is and great way to spice things up a bit from just using regular lettuce. And I find it more filling with the brussels sprouts and broccolini.

I love that this is a dish you can make a big batch of and have for meals all week long. Add any extra proteins you want or have on hand. And the hummus, evoo and lemon mix for a dressing is my favorite!

I cannot wait to hear what you think of this!! Don’t forget to tag me on Instagram and Tiktok if you try it.

What ingredients are in this delicious salad dish:

Shredded kale – I love using a tuscan kale for this dish but any you have works!
Shaved brussels sprouts – I buy whole and just thinly cut or you can buy a bag of shaved brussels sprouts too if that’s easier
Broccolini – you could also use broccoli too but I love using broccolini for this dish in particular
Avocado – ripe avocado adds great healthy fats to this dish
Grated parmesan cheese – grated right on top is the best! Especially when the ingredients are a little warm and it gets melted
Pumpkin seeds – love adding this in for extra nutrients and a crunch to the dish
Raisins – unsweetened raisins add the little touch of sweetness that this salad needs
Soft boiled or hard boiled eggs – if packing for school/work – make hard boiled! I typically make soft boiled because they’re my favorite and I typically eat this fresh when I make it
Hummus, extra virgin olive oil and fresh lemon – this is what I use for the dressing

How to prepare this Broccolini, Brussels Sprout and Kale Salad:

Massage kale with a drizzle of oil and a sprinkle of salt and set aside

Toss well and add the eggs per your liking then add hummus, fresh lemon juice and evoo on top as dressing and enjoy!

FAQs on this brussels sprouts, broccoli and kale salad:

Is this a good meal to make ahead of time and meal prep? Yes you definitely can! I just recommend using hard boiled eggs in that case and adding the avocado right before eating with evoo for dressing!
Can I add more protein to this if I want? Of course. This dish is amazing with some chicken, salmon or a veggie burger on top.
Is this salad filling to eat? Yes! It is filled with healthy fats, fiber and protein from the eggs and seeds. I also love eating this with some chips and crackers on the side.
