Notes

If you can’t find pre-shredded bagged Brussels sprouts, you can buy a pound of Brussels sprouts and do it yourself. It’s easy, just takes a bit of extra time. Here's how: Wash the sprouts, cut off the hard end/core and any outer leaves that need to be removed and/or come falling off, then thinly slice each sprout. Repeat, repeat, repeat until they’re all thinly sliced and shredded looking. Proceed with the recipe. (You’ll have close to the 10 ounces called for, since you discarded all the stems and outer leaves.)
