Ingredients
- 2 chicken sausage links pre-cooked
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 Asian pear sliced thin
- ½ red onion sliced thin, small
- 2 cups Brussels sprouts shaved thin
- 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped into 1” pieces
- ½ lemon
- olive oil
- salt
- black pepper
- ¼ cup blue cheese crumbled
- ¼ cup sunflower seeds
Dressing:
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ½ lemon
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons yogurt plain, Greek
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey
- ¼ teaspoon garlic minced, fresh
- 3-4 fresh parsley chopped fine, sprigs
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- To make the salad dressing, combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl.
- Using a whisk, combine all of the ingredients so that the dressing has a smooth consistency. If the dressing is too thick for your liking, simply add a little water to thin it out.
- Set the dressing aside, or refrigerate it if you made it ahead of time.
- Now, it’s time to cook the sausages. For tasty chicken sausage slices with crispy edges, we’re going to saute the sausage.
- Slice the sausage links into ½ inch slices on a bias.
- Heat a non-stick skillet on medium-high heat. Pour the olive oil into the skillet.
- Once the skillet is hot, add the sausage slices. Cook until they are heated through and have browned on the edges.
- Set the sausage slices aside and allow to cool down a bit.
- Next, prepare the salad ingredients. For shredded brussels sprouts, it's best to use a mandolin. Or, you can use a sharp knife and slice them into thin strips.
- Combine the sliced pear, red onion, brussels sprouts, and romaine lettuce in a large bowl.
- Squirt half of the lemon, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper over the salad greens. Gently toss together so that they are evenly coated.
- Pile the greens onto two plates. Then top the greens with the cooked sausage.
- Drizzle the creamy yogurt dressing over the top of the entire salad. Garnish with blue cheese crumbles and sunflower seeds.
- Serve immediately.
