Ingredients
Citrus Champagne Vinaigrette:
- 1/4 cup champagne vinegar
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons sweet yellow onion minced
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
- 2 teaspoons orange juice concentrate
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon honey
Salad:
- 1 pound fresh brussel sprouts shaved (about 4 cups)
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese shaved
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 4 slices of cooked bacon chopped
- 1/4 cup pepitas
- 2 honey crisp apples chopped
- 1/3 cup pomegranate seeds
Instructions
- Dressing: put all the dressing ingredients in a small food processor or blender and blend on high until fully combined.
- Build Salad: put all the salad ingredients in a large bowl and mix to combine.
- Toss with Dressing: pour the dressing over the top of the salad and toss to coat. Taste and make any adjustments, as needed.
- Serve: enjoy immediately!
Notes
- Shaved Brussel Sprouts: Buy pre-shaved brussel sprouts or use a mandoline or the slicing attachment to your food processor.
- Salad Ingredients: feel free to adjust any of the salad ingredients according to your own personal preferences.
- Make Ahead: this is a great salad to prep ahead of time - just cut the apples right before serving so they don't turn brown and don't add any dressing before serving (or things will get soggy).
- Dairy Free: omit the parmesan cheese or swap with a dairy-free alternative.
