Brussel Sprout Slaw

Brussel Sprout Slaw


When I woke up this morning I decided today was the day to clean out my refrigerator. I have a bunch of veggies in there that I need to use, so I began to cook. I used the brussel sprouts to make this slaw. It's so easy and really good. The recipe comes from one of my favorite paleo cookbooks Paleo Comfort Foods.

You will need:
1 cup toasted pecans
1/2 pound bacon, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 pounds brussel sprouts, trimmed

1. Preheat oven 325. Place pecans on cookie sheet and bake 5-8 minutes until toasted.
2. Cook bacon in skillet until crispy, set aside on a plate, and save the bacon fat in the skillet.
3. In a separate small bowl whisk mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper together
4. in a food processor slice the brussel sprouts.
5. Add sliced brussel sprouts to bacon fat in the skillet and sauté until softened and slightly browned.
6. Pour mustard mixture over sprouts. Add pecans and bacon and mix all together well.
7. Serve.
