Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 cups brussel sprouts (about 15 sprouts)
  • 4 cups fresh arugula (or greens of your choice, spinach is also great)
  • 1 pear (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup almonds or pecans
  • 1/2 cup raisins, dried cherries, or cranberries (optional)
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt (+ more to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper

Instruction

  • Begin by cutting your sprouts in half, and removing the bottom stem. Place inside a food processor or blender and pulse for 10-20 seconds or until the brussels have been "chopped".
  • In a large bowl toss in arugula, brussels sprouts, pear, raisins, and almonds or pecans.
  • To make the dressing, place the ingredients in a small bowl or jar. Whisk or shake until completely incorporated. Toss 1/2 cup of the dressing on the salad. You can use the entire jar, or reserve some for a later use. Adjust the dressing to your taste!
  • Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
