For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the dressing. If you prefer a sweeter dressing, increase the amount of brown sugar to your liking. The Brussels sprouts can be shredded in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to assemble. Serve immediately for the best crunch, or allow the flavors to meld for a few minutes before serving.
