Ingredients

Slaw:

  • 2 cups brussels sprouts (shredded (I used my food processor; roughly 20 sprouts))
  • 2 cups kale (shredded)
  • 1 cup radishes (sliced)
  • ¼ cup feta cheese (crumbled; or swap for cotija)

Vinaigrette

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon dijon
  • 3 teaspoons maple syrup

To Serve:

Instructions

Brussels sprouts slaw

  • In a large bowl, mix together the brussels sprouts, kale, radishes and feta cheese.
  • Shake together vinaigrette ingredients and toss into the salad.

Maple pork tacos

  • Reheat the pulled pork in a frying pan over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, or until warmed through.
  • Toast tortillas in a clean frying pan, over a gas range stove, or on the barbecue until lightly charred and warmed through.
  • To serve, top each tortilla with maple pulled pork, brussels sprouts slaw, and avocado slices as desired.

Notes

Recipe makes 12 small tacos, enough to serve 4-6 people.
 
Storage
Once assembled, these tacos should be eaten immediately, however you can prep components ahead and store in the fridge for easy reheat meals:
  1. cook pulled pork ahead- this can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days
  2. pre-shred the brussels sprouts + kale- store in an air tight container for up to 4 days
  3. shake up the maple apple cider vinaigrette up to 2 weeks ahead
