Instructions

In a small bowl, combine the sunflower seeds with 1 cup of cold water. Set aside for 20 – 30 minutes.
To make the candied walnuts, add the walnuts to pan over medium-high heat. Stir for a couple of minutes as they toast. Once slightly toasted and fragrant, add the maple syrup and all of the seasonings. Stir until the walnuts are completely coated, and cook for 2 – 3 minutes for the syrup to harden. Transfer into a small bowl. Set aside.
To make the dressing, combine all of the ingredients to a blender. Adjust to taste, and add more water to desired thickness. Transfer to a container and refrigerate until ready to dress the salad.
To prepare the salad, clean the brussel sprouts, cut off the ends, and thinly slice using a sharp knife or mandolin (be very careful when using this tool, use a glove and guard). Add to a large bowl. Thinly slice the red onion and transfer it to the bowl. Add the feta, walnuts, and pomegranate seeds.
Dress the salad with your desired amount of the salad dressing.

Serve immediately!
