Receta Brussels Sprout and Apple Slaw with Balsamic Vinaigrette
This time of year is crazy. I have relatives coming in from out of town and I’m trying to get things done from work to Christmas shopping before they arrive. Just the other day I spend six hours with the kids shopping for end of the year gifts for their teachers, friends and their dad, which required stopping at eight different stores to find everything we needed. Pile on running a couple more errands and hitting two grocery stores, I was exhausted but thankful I felt up to the task. After being in and out of the hospital this year, I’m glad I was able to do it by myself without my husband’s help. The kids were great organizing lists and helping carrying in groceries, of course, but I felt like Super Woman after completing all of our tasks!
One stop shopping at Target
I do like shopping at stores where you can buy gifts as well as grocery shop, which is why Target is one of my favorites. Right now if you’re out doing your last minute holiday gift shopping at Target, stop by their grocery section to pick up Kraft products for holiday entertaining and cooking. Right now you can save up to $20 using coupons at Target on all kinds of Kraft products from Kraft Shredded Cheese to Gevalia Coffee.
Inspired by Target’s Kraft sale, I picked up a couple of bottles of Kraft dressing. While I do make my own salad dressing most of the time, it’s nice to have a few bottles of Kraft dressing in the pantry, especially this time of the year when I don’t have fresh herbs from the garden. I picked up a bottle of Kraft Cucumber Ranch and Kraft Balsamic Vinaigrette along with some Brussels sprouts, apples, red onions, and dried cranberries since I wanted to make a slaw salad for dinner.
Healthy Brussels sprout slaw salad
This salad takes no time at all to make if you have a food processor. Finally, if you’re serving up leftover turkey or ham sandwiches during the holidays, sneak in a layer of Brussels Sprout and Apple Slaw in your sandwich. It’s sort of like “pig pile Elvis style,” but much healthier!
