Published on: 05/11/2023

This veggie packed salad will convert anyone and everyone into a Brussel sprouts fan. Enjoy as a main or a side dish, this roasted Brussel sprout salad will be your new favourite recipe.

Not only is this salad loaded with vegetables that aren’t lettuce (which is nice for people who don’t love traditional salads). It’s also a good source of protein. With quinoa and chickpeas, you’re getting about 10g protein per serving, which is pretty high for a salad.

If you’re curious about plant-based proteins, and what are good sources and how much protein you need per day, then check out this article I wrote. It breaks it all down.

The thing I love about this salad, is that it’s not like regular salads. It’s more filling, packed with flavour and includes lots of different textures. I love most salads, but when I make a salad I want it to have LOTS of ingredients. Lettuce and dressing alone don’t cut it for me.

You can also modify this salad to make it your own. If you’re vegan, omit the feta or add a dairy-free cheese. If you want to experiment with a different whole grain, try farro or bulgar. The Brussel sprouts are kinda crucial, so they have to be in there.
