Ingredients
- 1 tahini poppy seed dressing batch
- FOR THE SALAD:
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts outer yellow leaves and stems removed, shredded
- 2 cups peach sliced, from about 2 large or 3 medium peaches
- ⅓ cup feta cheese crumbles, optional but delicious
- For the nut crunch mixture:
- ⅓ cup almonds sliced
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds raw
- ½ tablespoon pure maple syrup
- salt sea salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl mix together tahini, lemon juice, maple syrup/honey, dijon mustard, poppyseeds, onion powder, salt and water to thin the dressing. Taste and add more maple syrup or honey if you like your poppyseed dressing a bit sweeter.
- Next, shred the brussels sprouts by using a food processor with the slicing attachment and pulse until the brussels sprouts are thinly sliced. If you don’t have a food processor, feel free to use a sharp knife to thinly slice. You also have the option of buying already shredded/shaved brussels sprouts in a bag from the store.
- Add brussels to a large bowl and pour the dressing all over. Use tongs to coat the brussels with the dressing. Let the dressing sit and marinate the brussels for 10-15 minutes. While the brussels marinate and soak up the dressing, you can chop and prep all your other ingredients.
- Finally make your nut crunch mixture: place sliced almonds and pumpkin seeds in a skillet over medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently until they turn slightly golden brown and fragrant, then turn off heat and immediately add in maple syrup and a pinch of sea salt. Stir for 30 more seconds to coat, then transfer to a plate or piece of parchment paper to cool for a few minutes. Some of the nuts will slightly stick together but this is what we want for the ‘nut crunch’ in the salad. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
- Add the sliced peaches to the brussels salad along with the nut crunch mixture and feta crumbles and toss to combine. Enjoy!
Notes
- To store: store this salad in an airtight container (or a few meal prep containers like these) for up to 4-5 days. The dressing will continue to marinate the brussels sprouts over time so that they taste amazing!
