Makes6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts
  • 3 slices turkey bacon
  • 3/4 cup walnuts
  • 1 cup sweet onion
  • 1 1/2 cup Butter leaf lettuce
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • DRESSING:
  • 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons agave syrup
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Slice off the tip of your Brussel sprouts and toss. Chop up your Brussels sprouts into bite size pieces.
     
  2. Dice up your onion. Dice up your turkey bacon.
     
  3. Heat up a skillet that you've sprayed down with olive oil spray and warm up your turkey bacon.
     
  4. Spray down a baking sheet with olive oil spray and toss in your Brussels sprouts. Dust with salt and pepper and spray down the tops with olive oil spray.  Toss them in 400 degree F oven to roast for approximately 25 minutes.
  5. When your bacon has warmed up transfer to a plate.
     
  6. Now using the same skillet that you used to heat up your turkey bacon spray it  down with  olive oil spray and toss in your Onions. Cooking until caramelized. If you feel like you need to add moisture throughout the process drizzle in some water.  Once your onions are about ready sprinkle with sea salt.
     
  7. In a separate skillet, turn the heat on low and place in your walnuts. Toast until for a few minutes. When you start to smell the walnuts you'll know they are done. Keep a close watch on them. There's a fine line between toasted and burnt.
     
  8. Let's make the dressing! Start off by putting your Dijon mustard into a small bowl. Now add your vinegar, blue agave nectar, olive oil and pepper. Mix together well and you're done!
     
  9. Time to assemble the salad! Get a decent sized salad bowl and place your lettuce leaves in. Next add your Brussels sprouts, onions, turkey bacon and walnuts. To finish drizzle on about half of your dressing and mix the ingredients together well. You can use the rest of your dressing for another salad. Serve and enjoy!

I have just begun raising my own garden. I personally love Brussels sprouts, but no one else in my large family would even taste them. One weekend I had 5 of my nieces and nephews for the weekend. I let them make this salad. We all loved it. The next thing I know..I am getting calls from their parents wanting to know what the recipe was for the "Baby Cabbages" the kids kept asking them to make. Needless to say I had to make it for the adults to try. Now I have to grow a lot of Brussels sprouts this year. Thanks so much for this recipe....I think.
