Ingredients
Salad Dressing Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons Lemon juice about 2 lemons
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice about 1 lime
- 1/2 cup olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 tablespoon minced green onions
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Salad Ingredients:
- 6 slices bacon cooked and crumbled -- try this easy method
- 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts thinly sliced; about 6 cups
- 1 cup shredded or grated Parmesan cheese preferably freshly shredded
- 1/2 cup chopped almonds toasted*
Instructions
- In a mason jar, combine salad dressing ingredients and give them a good shake until well combined.
- In a large salad bowl, combine salad ingredients and toss.
- Drizzle the salad dressing over the salad and serve immediately.
Notes
- To Toast the Almonds: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the chopped almonds on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for about 5-10 minutes, shaking the pan once or twice, or until you start to smell them. Keep a close eye on them and take them out just when they are starting to turn golden and smell toasted.
- I often make a full batch of this salad and munch on it all week long. Just don't add the salad dressing until you are ready to eat!
- I later use the Brussels in our Honey Balsamic Brussels Sprouts or Sheet Pan Sausage and Veggies.
