Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups brussel sprouts, shredded
  • 1 cup pine nuts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 lemon, squeezed
  • 1/4 cup pesto
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan
  • Seasonings: salt and pepper
  • optional: avocado

Instructions
 

  • Prep your Brussels by either shaving them if they're whole or sometimes I like to cheat and use the pre-shaved Brussels from the grocery store.
  • In a skillet on medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and add in your pine nuts. Toss or stir occasionally for about 3-5 minutes - don't neglect them or they definitely may burn!
  • To make the dressing, combine olive oil, a lemon, pesto, pepper and salt in a bowl.
  • Once the pine nuts have been toasted, in a large bowl add your Brussels, nuts, dressing and grated parmesan. If you have an avocado, feel free to add it is such a great addition to this salad!!
  • Enjoy!! xx
