Ingredients
Salad
- 50 g hazelnuts
- 50 g pecan nuts
- 100 g mixed salad leaves (I used a mix of baby spinach, rocket and baby chard)
- 100 g Brussels sprouts sliced very thinly
- 50 g dried cranberries
- 2 clementines peeled and divided into segments
- 100 g goat's cheese crumbled (optional, leave out for vegan/dairy-free)
Dressing
- juice of 1 clementine
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- salt and pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Lightly toast the nuts in a frying pan over a medium heat, taking care not to burn them. Remove the nuts from the heat and tip into a small bowl. Allow to cool a little.
- Meanwhile arrange the salad leaves on a large plate and scatter over the Brussels sprouts, cranberries, clementine segments and goats cheese, then sprinkle over the nuts.
- Mix together the ingredients for the dressing (I use a small jam jar, so I can give it a good old shake) and drizzle over the salad.
- Serve as a main meal with crusty bread, as a starter, or as side dish to chicken, ham or turkey.
