BRUSSEL AND KALE CRUNCH SALAD

Brussel Sprouts and Kale are two cruciferous vegetables, which contain important sulfur compounds that support the liver's health and detoxification pathways. This is why eating raw cruciferous veggies is a great idea on your health journey, and this salad recipe will make it taste divine... Have you ever tried cashew cheese dressing? One more reason to stay away from dairy... Add to these veggies, the acidity of the pomegranate, and the sweet crunch from the glazed nuts& seeds. A healthy source of fat like the avocado, and you're in for a nutritious treat. Feel free to add a boiled egg to your salad for extra protein!

Ingredients

• 2 cups Brussel sprouts, shaved
• 2 cups Baby Kale

• 1/3 cup Nuts & seeds (I used hazelnuts, pecan, pumpkin)

• 1 tsp Maple syrup
• 1/2 tsp Sea salt
• 1/2 cup Microgreens

ROOTCHEEZ DRESSING

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven on 400F.

3. Meanwhile, slice Brussel sprouts thinly, chop avocado, and place all ingredients in a salad bowl.
4. In a food processor, blend together all ingredients and adjust with water to reach desired consistency.
5. Pour this delicious vegan creamy "cheesy" dressing over your salad, and don't forget your maple glazed nuts&seeds for extra crunch and sweetness.
