Ingredients

Servings

Dressing

  • 1 garlic pressed or minced, clove
  • 2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar high-quality
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Salad Ingredients

  • 16 ounces Brussels sprouts fresh
  • 1 pomegranate peeled and seeded
  • ½ cup pecans chopped
  • 1 small Bartlett pear diced
  • ½ cup shallot thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Dressing: Add dressing ingredients to a jar, close tightly with a lid, and shake until combined. Salt and pepper to taste; set aside.
  2. Shred Brussels sprouts. Cut the stem end off of the sprouts, and remove any damaged outer leaves, then use the shred disc on a food processor to shave the sprouts. You can also use a mandoline or sharp knife. If using one of those methods, keep the stem end off to hold the sprout for stability, and be very careful!
  3. Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, combine shaved brussels sprouts, pomegranate, pecans, pear, and shallot. Toss with your desired amount of dressing immediately before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 2 days.
