Ingredients

For the salad
  • 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts

  • 1/2 cup pecans roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup pomegranate arils

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cut the ends off the Brussels sprouts then cut them in half lengthwise. Thinly slice each Brussels sprout crosswise to cut into shreds.
  2. Place the shredded Brussels sprouts in a bowl along with the apple, feta cheese, pecans, pomegranate arils and bacon.
  3. Place the shallot, olive oil, red wine vinegar, mustard, honey and salt and pepper in a jar. Shake to combine.
  4. Pour the dressing over the salad. Toss to combine, then serve.

Notes

  • To save on prep time, you can buy pre-cooked bacon. Also, if you don’t want to take the time to pick all of the arils out of a whole pomegranate, you can buy containers of pomegranate seeds that are ready to go in your produce section.
  • If you can’t find pomegranate seeds, substitute dried cranberries instead.
  • I typically use Pink Lady apples in this salad. Other great options include Braeburn, Honeycrisp, Gala or Fuji apples.
