  • 1 large Hass avocado, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • ½ cup toasted walnuts, roughly chopped

  • 1 medium shallot, minced
  • 1 tbsp. honey or maple syrup

Directions

  1. Begin by shredding the Brussels sprouts using a mandoline or a knife. It should look like thinly shredded cabbage. If cutting by hand, cut the sprout in half then lay it flat and thinly slice into ribbons. 

  2. In a large bowl combine the shredded sprouts, apple, avocado, walnuts and pomegranate seeds.

  3. In a small bowl combine everything for the dressing. Whisk and taste for seasoning.

  4. 15 minutes before serving, toss the dressing with the salad. Serve.
